Hello! My name is Ashley Hastings, and I am part of the kindergarten team at Sunnyside Elementary. I began my career with PCSD in 2022. My mission each year is to foster a classroom community where all students feel welcome, safe, loved, and eager to learn. I work hard at creating activities that are meaningful, hands-on, engaging, and, most importantly, fun! Together, we will learn what it means to be caring and principled learners who ask questions, find answers, work together, and take safe risks. I am so excited to get to know you and your children. Welcome to Sunnyside!
