I look forward to the adventures and discoveries we will have this school year! I consider us all family now. When parents/guardian, scholars and teacher work together we make a great TEAM! (Together, Everyone, Achieves More!) We become a strong team, family, community and resource for your children! I expect and honor your support as your child enters the classroom, learns, and grows throughout the year. Parent involvement is a very important aspect of every child’s education and is one of the primary factors of scholars' success in school. I would appreciate your presence and involvement throughout the school year
ALL ABOUT ME!
I had six children with my late husband (James). I have two grandsons, who bring me pure joy! In my free time I enjoying spending time with my family and reading. This summer I have learned about some new technology resources to make learning fun and interactive.
