Hello Stafford Community! My name is Tiara Wirkkala, and I am thrilled to be joining the Stafford community this year as Instructional Coordinator. I am coming from Boones Ferry Primary School, where I have been teaching 1st grade for the past three years. Prior to that, I taught and worked as a literacy coach in Los Altos, California. I'm originally from Washington State and have also lived near Washington, D.C. and in Japan. I'm so excited to work with the students, families, and staff at Stafford this year!
