This is my 23rd year of teaching in Fairhope!  How lucky am I? 

I attended Virginia Tech University, Go Hokies!  I have a BS in elementary education.  I have taught 3rd, 4th, and Kindergarten in Mississippi, New Jersey and Alabama.  I taught First grade for 18 years here at Fairhope Elementary before moving to secon grade 5 years ago.

My husband, Scott, and I have 3 children.  Kenny, Kay, and Bobby and 2 beautiful 3 year old grandaughters.

You will often see me riding my bike to school or running with my running partner, Dempsey my lab.  I love the outdoors and spending time with my family and dogs. 

Margaret Mead said, "Children must be taught how to think, not what to think.  I believe school is a place of learning and exploration and am honored to share second grade with your child.  We are a happy classroom where learning, friendship and creativity take place.  I look forward to watching your child flourish and grow this year!
