Kindergarten-1st Grade
Mrs. Kelly Meyer
Hi, I’m Kelly Meyer and I’m originally from Honolulu, Hawaii. I graduated from Walla Walla University three times! I have an A.S. in Early Childhood, B.S. in Elementary Education, and a M.A.T. in Literacy. I’ve been teaching for almost 30 years, most of those years in the Spokane area. I am married to my best friend Mike and we have six children, 3 grandchildren, two dogs, 8 chickens and will be adding bee hives to our crew this spring! Teaching is my passion! I love being a teacher, reading, doing research on Ancestry.com, planning family reunions, and racing in triathlons during the summer.

Ms. Julia Dewey
I am passionate about my three grown children, their spouses, three granddaughters, and many grand-puppies. Traveling internationally, live drama, and snuggling with my dog are some of my favorite things. I have a Master of Education degree in Reading from Boise State University and have taught for 26 years. My love of teaching started in elementary school and continued throughout my life. My greatest joy is watching the children develop the joy of learning.

Mrs. Darla Shupe
I grew up in the beautiful state of Montana, and I love the mountains! I graduated from Walla Walla University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Education with a minor in Music, as well as a Master of Arts in Teaching in Curriculum and Instruction. I have been teaching in the 5-8 classroom at SVAS since 2016, and I also enjoy directing the music program. Additionally, I find fulfillment in reading, music, crafting, sewing, camping and spending time with my husband and four children.
Our team is dedicated to your child’s unique learning needs!
