About The Teacher

I have been a teacher for 21 years and 20 of those years have been at 
Janney.  I love to teach!  I enjoy children!   I have experience in grades K 
thru 6th grade but most of my years have been spent in first and second grade.
I am originally from the great state of Pennsylvania.  I grew up in a small, 
coal town in central PA.  I bring many different experiences to my urban 
students that they have never heard of before.  
I am from a long line of teachers.  My grandparents, parents, sister, aunts 
and uncles have all been teachers.  I guess it is just in our blood!  :)
I hope you enjoy our class website and our school's web page as well. Enjoy!

Mission For The Class

My mission for my class is for all my students to learn and enjoy it along 
the way.  I want my children to feel safe and respected.  I try to build a 
community where all children are important and know that I believe in them.  
I want them to be able to be children.  They should laugh, giggle, talk with 
their friends, be silly but be able to get down to business. I could go on 
and on about my mission for children but one thing I have learned is that the 
best learning happens when I allow the children to take me down the path of 
education and I am there as their tour guide.  Go Janney Jaguars!
