​

My name is Katie Janis.  I am in my third year of teaching at Sycamore Elementary in a suburb of Indianapolis.  I spent two years teaching kindergarten and currently teach second grade.  Teaching is something I grew up around as both my parents are teachers.  Some of my fondest memories as a child were spent at summer camp and I eventually went through their leadership programs and became a counselor. Following, I chose to study to be a teacher at Indiana University.

​

Outside of teaching, I enjoy spending my time downtown Indianapolis and in my little corner of Fountain Square.  I spend time walking my dog, Maggie, on the canal, going to yoga, and trying local restaurants with friends.
