 Here is a little information about my background:

 

          Education has always been huge in my family. My mother was a History major in college and an elementary school teacher; my dad was a bank executive, as well as a college professor.   Seven of my cousins are educators!  In my family, we have always known that learning is cool! My parents, siblings, and I spent at least a month every summer traveling around our great nation in a camper- we were dragged to almost every historical sight around the country! I am so grateful for that (now). The love of the written word has always been a huge part of our lives as well. There was always someone nestled in a corner reading in our house. We are still discussing and sharing novels with each other all the time!

          Rahway is my hometown and I attended high school with Winfield students. I graduated from Arcadia University in Pennsylvania, am married, and have three wonderful, grown children, two granddaughters, and one grandson. I earned a Master's Degree in Education from Kean University and am highly qualified to teach Middle School Social Studies and ELA. I previously taught ELA and Social Studies in a private school for 12 years and this is my tenth year at Winfield School.

         I am passionate about teaching and still strive to learn every day. History and literature are truly in my blood. I really love the subjects that I teach and hope to pass that on to my students!
