Hi my name is Ashley Blankenship and this is my fourth year teaching here at Cardinal Ridge Elementary! I previously taught fifth grade for two years and switched to third grade last year and loved it! I am so excited to begin my second year in third grade. I earned my Bachelor's degree at The California State University of Sacramento in Child Development and my Masters of Science in Education at Shenandoah University.
I have had the opportunity to live all over the country including California, Ohio, Illinois, Oklahoma, and now the wonderful Virginia!
In my free time I enjoy taking my puppy on walks, working out at the gym, and spending time with family and friends. I am looking forward to another amazing year as a Red Wing and cannot wait to see what this year will have in store for us!
