About The Teacher

     I grew up in Covington, LA.  I am a graduate of University of Louisiana-
Lafayette with a B.A. in Elementary Education and Southeastern Louisiana 
University with a master's degree in Curriculum & Instruction in Gifted 
Education.   I have been teaching for the past 17 years, teaching grades 1-
4.  This will be my fifth year teaching multi-age gifted students. I love to 
learn new things and love to share my knowledge with others. I have trained 
the new teachers of the gifted in this parish for the past 2 summers, have 
presented to other gifted colleagues at our Summer Institute Conference, and 
have helped worked on writing curriculum and work stations for gifted K - 3 
for our district.  I live in Covington with my loving husband, 2 children, 
and mini-dachshund, Gumbo.  I am the proud mother of Catherine (9th grader) 
and Sydney (6th grader).

Mission For The Class
