About The Teacher

This is my 9th year as a teacher in the Lebanon Special School District. I taught 8 years as a 6th grade 
ELA teacher at CHUE. I am now teaching 6th grade ELA and serving as the Reading Specialist at WJB for 
grades 6 and 7.  I am highly qualified and certified to teach grades K-8 (7th & 8th grade Reading and 
L.A.)  I graduated Cum Laude from MTSU, and I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Master's of
Education from Cumberland University.  I have also earned an Administrator's Endorsement on my 
teaching license.  I have been married for over 16 years, and we have three beautiful daughters.  I 
absolutely love what I do and can't imagine doing anything else!

Mission For The Class

Learning is living and living is learning which equals LIFELONG LEARNERS. It 
is a continuous ongoing process - not limited to the classroom. I must help 
bridge from the classroom to the world. My mission is to integrate 
curriculum in such a way that the students become personally engaged with 
the material and perceive the subject matter to be directly relevant to 
their own lives. I commit to awakening students to learn; empowering them to 
take responsibility for their learning, inspiring courage to grow 
intellectually, cultivating curiosity, providing opportunities for 
developing relationships, clarifying values and integrity, uplifting the 
spirit, and inciting the students to action!
