Years with
BSO: This is my 16th year at BSO.

What do
you love about teaching? I love being a part of the joy students experience
during light bulb moments.
What do
you love about teaching with Branson? BSO allows me to try new things, pushes
me to continually grow as a teacher, and supports me in lifelong learning.
Favorite
season? Why? I love the summer! That's when I can read in a hammock with the
sun on my face and if it's a really good summer... I'll be reading on a beach
and feeling the sand between my toes.
Favorite
place you have traveled to? My top three would be Fiji, Hawaii, and Cancun,
Mexico.
# 1 item
on your bucket list: My list is too long but #1 is to go to the Taj Mahal with
my husband.
Favorite
book/author: This is nearly as impossible to answer as the food question. I
love reading and have been in the same book club for years. We combine reading
with eating so it is perfect for me. :) I'll just share my favorite genre which
is historical fiction.
Favorite
sport: My favorite sport to watch is Rugby Sevens and my favorite sport to play
is basketball.
Anything
else you’d like to share: BSO is my family and it is an honor to be a part
of my students' lives!
We LOVE Mrs. Narayan!! She's so dedicated & hardworking & genuinely interested. She's kind and caring and has been such a wonderful teacher. She's the kind of person who will take time to discuss parenting as well as education. There have been days when I've been feeling down as a parent and she takes the time to just listen & talk about her own feelings & experiences. That's part of what makes her great. I just can't say enough good things about her.. She's amazing.
