About Ms. WhalenI am so excited to be joining the Thornhill team as a 2nd grade teacher. This will be my 12th year in Oakland Unified and over the course of my time serving the children of Oakland, I've worked as both an upper elementary teacher and a literacy coach. I am overjoyed to be heading to 2nd grade where I can share my love of learning sprinkled with a little bit of magic.
