Bennett Elementary School

Mrs. Aimee Dowgar

Welcome to Kindergarten! I am so excited to be back with my Bennett Family for this 2023-2024 school year. This year will be my seventeenth year teaching and I love getting to spend my days with your wonderful children.  Kindergarten is such a fun and exciting grade- every day is a new adventure, and we're always learning!

  I graduated from Hardin-Simmons University in 2004 and have experience teaching both Kindergarten and Second Grade.  I am married to Adam and we have 2 children, Colton who is 8 and a third grader at Bennett, and Charlee who is 4 and beginning her Frenship experience in Pre-K this year.  My husband, Adam is a Frenship graduate, so Tiger blood runs in our family!

  Teaching is a calling that I am passionate about, and I feel incredibly blessed to have the opportunity each day to work with your children. I strive to make learning enjoyable and challenging for my students, and I welcome visits and conversations with parents.  I hope that we can work together as a team this year to make your Kindergarten experience the best it can be.
