About The Teacher
This is my 8th year at St. Bernadette School and my fifth in Kindergarten. Since I was a child, I always wanted to be a teacher, and though it took me many years to make that wish a reality I feel very blessed that God has guided me to the place I am at now. I LOVE teaching, especially young children, and am excited to come to school every day. It is an awesome feeling to be able to make such a difference in the lives of children, and I take that duty very seriously. It is so gratifying to see lightbulbs "turning on" when children reach that "aha" moment, and also to listen to the children talk about what they are learning. I also enjoy learning from my students - something that happens each and every day. I have been married to my husband Bill for 25 years; his love and support have been instrumental in allowing me to do what I love every day. We have three children - Billy (24), (Katie 22), and Kerry (14). Our other two family members are a 4-year-old Labradoodle named Gipper and a 6-month-old Goldendoodle named Bailey. I love dogs, which is why our class mascot is in fact a dog. In my spare time, I love to read, I enjoy scrapbooking of family photos and memorabilia, and I bowl in a duckpin bowling league with lots of fun people (many of whom are teachers).

Mission
My goal for my classroom is to encourage the children to help me build an environment where each child feels welcome and safe to take the risks necessary to learn. I would like the children to understand that God has given each of us special (and different) gifts and talents, and that we need to respect each other's uniqueness because we are all God's children. I hope to help each child grow spiritually, emotionally and socially, as well as to prepare them academically for 1st grade.
