Hello! I am delighted to be here! This is my sixth year teaching
here and I am so excited to be back! I am thrilled that the fifth grade is
doubled. We will be team teaching again this year. I will be teaching
math and science. It has been a refreshing change!
For those of you who do not know much about me I am from a very small
town located in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains in upstate New
York called Galway. It is a very quaint town where everybody knows
everyone. My Elementary and High School were connected so I went to the
same school from K-12th grade. It was right down the road so I was very
active in all the activities the school offered and was able to walk to and
from school. From High School I went to Davis College (formally known as
Practical Bible College) in Binghamton, NY and then I attended Columbia
International University and received my masters degree in Early Childhood
Education and Elementary Education.
I absolutely love it here and could not imagine myself any other
place. I truly feel honored to have the opportunity to teach here and I'm
loving every minute!
"Raise the Bar" - We want to constantly be improving in all that we do and
going above and beyond the call of duty. This not only concerns our
academics but also our social skills. I want each one of these students to
soar towards success!
