My name is Sitara Byrd, and I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to begin my teaching career as a 4th grade teacher at Holy Family. I have always had a passion for teaching and for creating a classroom built on love, support, and encouragement.
I was born and raised in Spokane in a family of eight, with four sisters and one brother. I attended St. Aloysius Catholic School from Montessori through eighth grade, then went on to Gonzaga Preparatory High School. I graduated from Lewis-Clark State College with a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Special Education, and I played on the women’s basketball team all four years. In my free time, I enjoy going on walks and spending time with my loved ones.
I believe God has called me to serve as a teacher, and I feel incredibly blessed to share this journey with my students this year. I look forward to working with students and families to achieve success!
Go Hawks!
