I graduated from Wyoming Valley West high School then went on to
receive an Associates Degree in Elementary and Early Childhood
Education from Luzerne County Community College. I attended
Kutztown University which allowed me the amazing experience of
student teaching in South Dakota at a boarding school for Native
American students. After graduating from Kutztown with a dual Bachlors
Degree in Elementary and Early Chilhood Education, I had two long
term substitute positions in third and fourth grades in the Brandywine
Heights School District, located outside of Kutztown. I have been a
teacher at Dallas Elementary ever since. I have received a Masters
Degree in classroom technology from Wilkes University.
While at Dallas Elementary I taught fourth grade for the first four
years, fifth grade for the next four, and have now returned to fourth
grade.
During my years as a teacher I have run a homework club for my
students, tutored in the before and after-school math and reading programs,
run school-wide programs to support our troops, and I was the Dallas High
School girls' volleyball coach for two years.
On a personal note, I am a founding member and a snare drummer in the
newly formed bagpipe and drum band named Wyoming Valley Pipe and Drum Band.
I enjoy hobbies such as reading, geneology, learning about the history of
our state and our area, and spending time with friends and family. I have
recently gotten married to my wonderful husband, Kevin.
To provide a social and academic environment that allows each
student to achieve and work to his/her full potential so that he/she may
go on to become successful in life.
