I am about to take on a second year adventure moving from the Jr. High to the Elementary school. I will be a teacher for a self contained special education K-2 classroom. I am excited to take on this new adventure, and to start my second year teaching in a wonderful, yet struggling district. I believe that the education of our students is the most important gift that we can give the world. Our students deserve the best, and because of financial struggles, teachers must be creative to find ways to provide the best. Thank you to donorchoose and the wonderful generosity of our friends, family, and community that provide for our students.
