About The Teacher
Welcome to my second grade class. I am a graduate of Illinois State University and received my Master's Degree from St. Xavier University. When I began teaching 21 years ago in Morton I first taught Early Childhood, then moved up to kindergarten and then advanced to first grade. For 6 years I taught both first and second grade in our looping program. We are not looping anymore so now I am permanently teaching second grade. My family consists of my husband of 35 yrs. Kevin, and 2 children, David 28 yrs. and Kristen 31 yrs. My daughter and her husband Jeff are both teachers and are parents to my grandson Ben whois 4 and his sister Elle, 10 months. Besides being a teacher, being a grandparent is the best!

Mission Label:


Mission
My mission for my students is for them to become lifelong learners and problem solvers. I want them to enjoy coming to school and succeed in their subjects. My wish for them is to not only grow acidemically, but emotionally and socially as well. Each day is a new beginning and I find such joy in seeing them accomplish their goals. I also want my parents to feel comfortable in discussing their child's progress with me. My aim is to work as a team with all adults associated with each of my students. I feel like I have the best job in the world.
