Teaching Philosophy: I believe an Educators role is to mentor each unique child to realize their potential in a safe and nurturing environment through interactive learning and ample opportunity to develop their academic literacy, talents, interests, and social/emotional skills.

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Welcome to your child’s classroom! What happens in this classroom will affect your child’s future. Your child’s time here will be well spent. He or she may even come home exhausted from all the thinking done during the day! I will make sure every moment counts. We have a fantastic group of children in this class. Third grade is a big deal and I know how important it is to you that they have a teacher that is devoted to their academic and social/emotional growth and development. With your help, we can make it happen!

A bit about me personally
