I am very excited about joining your children this year.  I am dedicated to making this year a great one.  I believe that learning should be fun and hands on while challenging each child to do their best.  I will set high expectations for each student as well as myself.  With guidance and support, every student has the opportunity to succeed in third grade.  When expectations are high, both at home and at school, students will rise to meet their goals.  I will continue to communicate with you with newsletters and email.  Please let me know of any ideas or ways to enrich the learning experience of our class.  Email is the best way to reach me. 

A little bit about me:

I have been at Union Academy for seven years in Kindergarten, EC, and Third Grade.  Our four children are also here at UA:   twin seventh graders, a fourth grader, and a kindergartener, at last!  I thoroughly enjoy my job as both a mother and a teacher.

I love being creative.  I sew, paint, and make hair bows.  I enjoy creative endeavors with my children such as baking and arts and crafts.  I also adore watching my kids in their sorting events.
