MR. WARREN’S FAMILY
Mr. Warren is married to his wife, Jacqui. She works as a Marketing Associate for Farm Bureau Insurance. Mr. and Mrs. Warren have four children. They are all former Dixie Bee students.
The youngest of their four children is their daughter, Alaina. She will be a sophomore at ISU where she will be studying to become a high school music teacher. Alaina is a proud Marching Sycamore in the band at ISU. She loves playing the trumpet and is a “Cat Mom” to her cat Scout and the family’s three cats; Celeste, Hermes and Callie.
Mr. Warren’s son, Ian, will be a Junior at ISU studying Digital Media with a minor in Liberal Arts. Ian works part time at WTHI in Terre Haute. He enjoys performing music on his trombone for massive audiences.
Mr. Warren has two more adult sons both of whom are married.
Aaron is the oldest and is married to Cassidy. Aaron is a commercial electrician and Cassidy is a social worker. They live in Effingham, IL.
Evan is the second oldest son and his wife’s name is Skyler. He works as a semi driver at Midwest Logistics. Evan’s wife, Skyler, is in the process of getting her CDL where she can team drive over the road in the future with her husband, Evan. These two plan to eventually move to LA as it is their favorite place to take vacations.
Required Supplies for my Classroom are listed on Dixie Bee’s Master Supply list at the following link:
https://web.vigoschools.org/dixie-bee/school-supplies/
Additionally, if you would like to donate extra items, we always need extra paper towels, Kleenex Tissues and snacks.
Our morning schedule is very long! We do not eat lunch until around 12:45pm. It is very important that you send a snack with your child daily. The students get very hungry. As mentioned above, if you would like to donate snacks for our classroom, I gladly accept them and truly appreciate your generosity.
Please label all your child’s materials (except for pencils) with his or her name. This includes jackets, gloves, coats and hats.
I may request specific items throughout the school year for parties or extra projects. Please watch Parent Square or your email for these requests.
Mr. Warren’s 2025-2026 First Grade Class Amazon Wish List
Please click the link above to visit my Amazon Classroom Wish List. I would gladly accept any Legos (new or used) to add to the ones we already have in the classroom. The item I put on the list is simply put there as an example. These are great for indoor recess.
I use a classroom economy. Students earn Warren Bucks on a merit system. They use their bucks to purchase items from our classroom Treasure Box on a weekly basis. Generally we do Treasure Box on Fridays and parent volunteers manage our Treasure Box.
At the end of the year we have a Treasure Box Auction. Throughout the year I always accept donations of new or gently used age appropriate toys, games, books, snacks, candy and items that any six or seven year old would enjoy.
