Hi students and families! My name is Mrs. Vonetta Johnson and I am your first grade teacher.  I have been a teacher for fifteen years and this will be my ninth year teaching at Lawton Elementary School. I love first grade and all the exploring, learning and fun we get to have!  

I was born and raised in Michigan and I have a Master’s Degree in Mental Health and a second Master’s Degree in Elementary Education.  I love to teach reading!  I could teach it all day!  I can’t wait to help you become a better reader and expose you to lots of new reading adventures. 

This summer, my husband and I spent a lot of time planting flowers in our yard and playing with our 7 year old son Michael Jr.  Michael Jr. is a great helper and was very excited to learn about planting and watering and making things grow from the ground.  I’m excited about spending the rest of this year learning and growing with you!
