Hello! My name is Julie Krupa. This will be my second year at Harrington Elementary! I previously taught in Georgia for thirteen years and in Alabama for one year before moving to Texas in 2021. I have taught 1^st, 3^rd, and 5^th grades, as well as reading intervention. I graduated from Kennesaw State University, and have a Master’s degree in Reading and a Specialist’s degree in Curriculum. Reading is a passion of mine, and I LOVE helping my students find all of the magic that can be discovered when opening a book!!!

I live in Plano with my husband and our two pups. In my free time, I love reading, going to the movies, and learning a new recipe with my husband. I am excited to continue my journey as a Harrington Husky!!!
