About The Teacher

     I am a graduate from West Chester State University with a B.S. in Health 
and Physical Education.  I received my Master's of Education from the 
University of Pittsburgh. I completed my Administrative certificate through 
Gannon University.   
    I have coached both in high school and college level to include Bradford 
High School girls basketball, University of Pittsburgh at Bradford women's 
basketball, and St. Bonaventure University softball.  I am the Head 
Girl's Golf coach for Bradford High school for the 2009 season.  
    I have been trained by Pennsylvania State Unversity to faclitate 
their "Strengthening Families" through the Prosper program.  I am 
teaching the All-Star Health program which is conjunction with the grant 
Prosper program.  The All-Star program is in its fifth year and is taught in 
7th grade.
    I have lived in Bradford for most of my life.  I am the mother of two 
children, Abbey, a graduate at University of Pittsburgh and works for the 
State of Pennsylvania Corrections Division.  My youngest daughter, Katlyn, is 
a junior at Misericordia University majoring in Nursing and swims for the 
collegiate team.
    Teaching the Bradford School District has been a dream come true.  Being 
a native of Bradford, it is important to give back to your community and I  
have this wonderful opportunity to work with the youth of this community. I 
enjoy the interaction with the students and hope to provide them with 
information that will be used to help develop a healthy life-style and give 
the information to make healthy decisions in their life.

Mission For The Class

To provide a strong, effective health education program to help students 
develop healthy life-styles, and to enhance their intellectual growth and 
development as they become responsible members of society for the future.
