Hi All. I began my teaching career as a paraprofessional. I did that for 5 years before I was given the chance to become the primary teacher in my own preschool classroom. I have spent much of my money wanting to provide better things for my children. I work in a district where not much is provided to the children so whatever I can get for them I do but I am only one person. My children deserve what I can give them and more because they are all such amazing human beings. Being able to provide for them brings such joy to me and seeing their joy makes every day worthwhile. When they enter my classroom, they are entering their second home and I do whatever I can to make them want to keep coming back. Thank you for your interest in my classroom!
