The VI team will work with students, parents, and staff to increase learning, provide modifications and appropriate low vision aids, and encourage independence for students who are visually impaired.

 

 

 

I live in Statesville with my husband.  We've been married 37 years.  We have two married children and seven  wonderful and gorgeous granddaughters. 

 

My educational background:

Bachelor of Arts degree--Lenoir Rhyne University, Hickory, NC

Master of Arts degree--University of North Carolina, Charlotte, NC

National Board for Professional Teaching Standards Certification

 

I began my teaching career as a 5th grade teacher.  After a few years, I made the change to Exceptional Children, and then finally to the area of visually impaired.  I have served Iredell-Statesville Schools as a Teacher of Visually Impaired Students for the past 19 years.  I have great students and enjoy working with all of them. 

 

My base school is Celeste Henkel Elementary School, but I travel to many different schools in the district depending on the locations of my students.
