About The Teacher

I graduated from San Jose State University where I also earned 
my California Elementary Teaching Credential. I have taught grades 4-6 in 
the Cupertino Union School District and grades 1-3 in Christian schools. 
This is my 12th year teaching third grade at LACS.
 
My husband and I live in Sunnyvale where we raised our three 
children. I am also blessed to have two wonderful sons-in-law, one daughter-
in-law, and three beautiful granddaughters.

In my free time, I like to enjoy my granddaughters, garden, read books, 
cook,and spend time with my family and friends. My favorite vacation spot is 
in the Colorado Rockies or Yosemite National Park.

Mission For The Class

I feel that God has brought each student to this school and my classroom for 
a specific reason. My goal is to work in partnership with parents, tutors, 
and students to enable each student to be academically successful while 
maintaining a positive self image. 

Our class verse is Psalm 139:14 
"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are 
wonderful, I know that full well."

The over all mission statement for the school is "to train children in heart, 
mind, soul, and body to become balanced Christ-like students who earnestly 
seek to know, love, and serve God."
