Welcome! I will be your child's teacher this school year. This year will begin my 26th year of teaching! My family includes my husband, Jeff, sons, Ryan and Andrew, my daughter, Rachel, and our dog, Buster. I will have a new granddaughter in October! I've taught all grades from Grades 1-6.  I received my undergraduate degree from Juniata College in PA and my Master's Degree in Elementary Education from Francis Marion University in SC. I received my National Boards for the Professionalism of Teaching Certification in 2003 and renewed last year. In 2006, I became a Certified Environmental Educator. I value education and hope that we will have a great year learning together.
