I have taught kindergarten for twenty-seven years. It is my passion to establish a strong foundation for the five-year-olds entering my classroom. I want to teach beyond the basics. I desire to instill a love for learning that will truly last a lifetime. However, I cannot accomplish this alone. My goal each year is to empower my parents with the vision of building learning into their home life. The teacher / parent team make education successful! I am excited to share my experiences and encourage others to reach out to their parents and community.
