About The Teacher
EDUCATION: I received my BA in English/Secondary Education from Southern Adventist University in 1991. I completed my student teaching at Brainerd High School. I taught freshman English/freshman Honors English. I am a "Highly Qualified" teacher of English. I am currently pursuing my masters in Educational Technology / Library Media from Indiana State University. PERSONAL: I am married and have two children. My daughter is 7 and is in the second grade; she loves Webkinz and horses. My son is 5 and in in kindergarten; he loves anything with wheels that moves (cars, trucks, and trains). My children are the light of my life. Our household also includes a Weimeraner named Grey and a cat named Scout (after the character in "To Kill A Mockingbird"). I have lived in six different states. I was born in Michigan but only lived there until I was two. When my sister was born my parents moved to the family farm in South Dakota where we raised corn and beef cattle. When I was 11 we left South Dakota and moved to Oklahoma. My sophomore through senior years in high school I went away to boarding school in Arkansas. After graduation, at the age of 19, I worked in Malibu, California, as a nanny to four children. I moved to the Chattanooga area in 1987 and consider it one of the best places to live. I have family in California, Colorado, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Texas. Aside from my husband and children, only my parents and sister live here in Chattanooga. I love working with young people. I am anxious to get to know each and every one of you and look forward to a great school year!
