I have been teaching at John Ehrhardt since it opened nineteen years ago.
This is my 39th year of teaching (yes, you read that right!!), and I have
taught fourth through eighth grades. I love teaching, and after all these
years, I still get excited at the thought of beginning a new school year. In
my spare time, I like to read, decorate my house, and spend time with my
niece, Madeleine, and my nephews, Kellen and Carter. I love all sports
especially soccer and football, and my favorite teams are Notre Dame Fighting
Irish and SF 49ers! My hobby is calligraphy which I have studied for many
years.
"I believe that every student wants to learn and do his or her best, and my
goal is to help each student achieve that. Along the way, I hope that my
students will feel the joy that learning brings and the satisfaction that
comes with realizing they can be independent and in charge of their own
learning. There is no shame in not knowing something. The shame comes when
we refuse to do anything about it."
