Ms. Aunko, 

How long have you been at Collinsville?

This is my 3rd year teaching in Collinsville, but I went to school here from kindergarten through graduation. My four kids have also gone to Collinsville.

What is your favorite thing about teaching?

I love building relationships with my students. My favorite thing is when they come to see me on Friendly Fridays.

What is something funny your students have said?

I don’t think I could pick just one thing! They all say funny things daily! 

What is your favorite treat? 

My favorite treat is coffee, hot or iced... it doesn't matter. :))

"I love my job

My favorite sweet treat is a Reese’s Take 5. My favorite salty treat is Gardetto’s.
