Hi! This is my 8th yr. of teaching at Union Hill but I have taught
Kindergarten for many years. I have also taught Pre-K and First grade but my
first love is Kinder. I am originally from Iowa, but have lived in
Texas for 18 years. My husband Tim is a football coach at Cedar Park High
School. We have 5 children and 5 grandbabies. We are sending Beau(19) off
to college this yr.to Sam Houston State and we still have Susan (16) at home.
She will be a
Junior at Cedar Park. We live in Leander. I love my job! It is
very rewarding to see the
children grow and thrive in this very developmentally important time in
their lives.
My goal for this year is to learn every day and have fun doing it! It is
very important to me that the children feel cared for and safe. We are a
family and its OK to make mistakes. We will celebrate accomplishments and
help each other learn.
