Hello! I'm so excited to meet my new students and their families! I wanted to take a moment to share a little about myself before the new school year begins. This will be my 16th year teaching little folks and I love my work. I can't imagine a more satisfying or challenging career. I love to learn, laugh, and have fun...the classroom is never short of opportunities for all three. I am married to Chad and we have a crazy bulldog named Sanford. We play a lot of golf and enjoy spending time with our friends and family. I have always loved creative endeavors of all sorts. Photography is a hobby I began about 5 years ago and I enjoy capturing images of my students in action. My family has had its fill however, as I have been referred to as "the paparazzi." My favorite teacher was my high school English teacher, Mrs. Drake. I can't tell you specifically what I learned so long ago, but I remember very clearly how she made me feel. She was bold, funny, charismatic, and she accepted all the differences among her students. I always felt capable, smart, and interesting in her presence. From my perspective, she believed in us all which made going to her class an uplifting and positive experience. I'm looking forward to getting to know my students and learning about what makes each of them different and special. Together, I believe we will learn a lot from each other! That's enough about me. Can't wait to know YOU!

The summer for me is typically about mixed emotions. On one hand, I am thrilled to have some time to breathe, gather my thoughts, relax, play golf, and remove myself from a scheduled day. Unfortunately, this need ends for me pretty early on. I have had my fill of lazy days by the beginning of July. And then it starts. I wake up one morning overwhelmed with ideas, "to dos," and excitement for a new year ahead. And so here I am today. I'm website building, list generating, and resource exploring. Can't wait to meet my new kiddies and get back into the exciting business of learning! |
