Hello!  Welcome to 2^nd Grade!  This will be my 13^th year working in Elementary Education.  I started off  teaching 1^st grade in Aurora, Colorado, for 6 years.   We then moved here to Noblesville and I have been fortunate to be working here at White River ever since – first as an Apple Reading teacher and more recently in 2^nd grade.  Teaching is a great profession!  Everyday I learn something new from my students and I am continually amazed at all their thinking, learning and growing as classroom citizens.   My goal is to provide a positive and caring environment in which students can develop their true potential and become responsible, respectful, life-long learners.
