About The Teacher

      This is my 30th year teaching and my 7th year as a Lower Elementary 
teacher in John Hanson.   I received my Montessori training at the Barrie 
School, American Montessori Society.  My first 24 years were spent teaching 
elementary music, chorus and band in Pennsylvania and as the music teacher 
for the first year of John Hanson Montessori.  I have a B.S. in Musc Education 
from Indiana University of Pennsylvania.  I am certified not only 
in Music, but with a Preschool - 3rd grade and 1-6 grade classroom 
qualification. I finished a Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction as a Reading 
Specialist at Grand Canyon University last spring.  Next project is a PhD with Walden University 
combining music and reading.
     I live in Accokeek with my energetic dog, Raven, two pesky cats, Huxley and Cheese, 
and three calm ferrets, Martina, Phoebe and Graneso.  My two sons are now grown 
and living out of state.  I am the Music Director and organist at Oxon Hill 
Methodist Church and was an organist for 25 years in PA.  I also sing with 
the Capital Hill Chorale.

Mission For The Class

     The mission for our class is to challenge the child in his strengths 
and help him to grow in a multi-faceted curriculum that prepares him for 
life situations throughout his education and adulthood.
