About Miss O'Neill

    I am so excited about teaching another year in 5th grade here at Waggoner. I am an Arizona State University graduate.  Go Devils!  I am currently working on my Masters Degree in Language and Literacy at A.S.U. Education is an extremely important aspect of my life because I consider myself to be a life long learner.   I am looking forward to another great year with my 5th graders.  I know it will be an amazing year of learning and growing together as Waggoner Wildcats.
