Meet Mrs. Schonour
Hi there! My name is Christine Schonour and I am excited to be working with your children this year. I am going into my sixth year of teaching - all of those years have been at Irwin. This is my third year teaching 5th grade - I taught 1st grade for two years and 3rd grade for one year. I was born and raised in Charlotte, NC and have lived here most of my life. I earned a Bachelor's of Arts in Communication Studies from UNC Wilmington in 2009. I also earned a Graduate Certificate and Master's of Art in Teaching Elementary Education from UNC Charlotte in 2013. I am die-hard sports fan! I love the Carolina Panthers, Charlotte Hornets, Carolina Tar Heels, and UNCW Seahawks. I really enjoy watching all sports. I also enjoy traveling, trying new recipes, swimming, relaxing, and playing sports.
Fun Facts about Mrs. Schonour:
1. I attended Irwin in 4th and 5th grade.
2. My brother and sisters are triplets.
3. I had been a swim instructor/camp counselor at the Harris and Dowd YMCA for 9 years and the past 2 summers I've been the swim lesson coordinator at the Morrison YMCA.
4. My favorite colors are Panthers blue, purple, and teal.
5. On August 18th, 2017, I got engaged in Jamaica and on April 7th, 2018 I got married! :)
