Hello my name is Nina Warren. This is my third year teaching in the Hazelwood School District. I taught with the St. Louis Public School District for about nine years.  I consider myself an advocate and voice for young learners.  I have a bachelor's in business administration and minored in sociology.  I also hold an MBA and a Master's in Adult and Early Childhood Education.   I am a mother of  four girls 11,15,18,21 years old. I know from first hand experience how hard parenting can be, so my hat goes off to the village that helps in raising a child. Go forth and live life through knowledge and experience . Remember they go hand in hand. We all should be open to learning something new everyday. Even if it is that an olive is a fruit and not a vegetable.
