I have learned so much from all of the schools I have taught in and most importantly, the students I have worked with...My students have made me the teacher I am today. I like to stay up on current Best Practices so I read a lot and try new things. Please contact me with any comments, questions, or suggestions...I love hearing from parents, students, and other educators!
