About The Teacher
I am a graduate of Wyoming Valley West. I received a Bachelors of Science Degree in Elementary Education with a concentration in science from College Misericordia and a Master Of Education in Curriculum and Development from Wilkes University. I began my teaching career as a substitue teacher for various schools in the Wyoming Valley until I was hired by the Pittston YMCA to teach in their Nursery School program. Three years later I was hired by St. John the Baptist School in Pittston to teach 5th through 8th Science and remained for fifteen years until the school was closed by the Diocese of Scranton. I have been teaching at Wyoming Area since 2004 first as a Kindergarten teacher and then as a first grade teacher. This year I am very excited to be teaching fifth grade. I have been selected to Who's Who Among America's Teachers several times, Cambridge Who's Who, and was nominated to Disney's Teacher of the Year. I live in Exeter with my husband Tom, my daughter Jessica, who is also a teacher, our chihuahua, Cheech, and our two cats, Cosmo and Tilley. My other daughter, Jennifer, lives in Philadelphia. My pasttimes are singing and continuing my education.
