  • 4th Grade
I became a teacher because I love to see the "light bulb" go on when students learn something new! I remember these moments as a student myself, and the feeling that I would be able to use that skill/concept/lesson for the rest of my life. I hope to always be a part of my students' life lessons.

Throughout my life, I have been a teacher in different arenas for more than half my life. From a very early age, I realized I was able to connect with children and was grateful for this gift! I started off with teaching/coaching my passions in life, swimming and water polo, as well as skiing. Soon I realized I wanted to be a teacher, so I went back to school to get my MEd. I have been teaching here at Howard R. Driggs for the entire time, I have loved all of my experiences.  As a teacher, I hope to introduce children to a world of happiness and understanding. I want to encourage students to appreciate the strengths of diversity as well as the comfort and connection of commonalities. Through fostering humanity, I will facilitate children in reaching their full potential in all aspects of their lives. In the classroom, there will be high expectations followed by respect, accountability, and responsibility for each child to freely express their unique qualities. Furthermore, all students must feel safe and welcome in my classroom. Every student, regardless of culture, ethnicity, or beliefs, deserves a fair education tailored to meet the needs of the individual. Therefore, along with teaching core content, I will teach children the importance of compassion, unity, and embracing differences. I too will treat each child with compassion and respect. By modeling this behavior, I will honor my integrity and ideas of humanitarianism. I believe that focusing in these areas will create a positive learning environment, which will allow for the most effective reception of new information by all students.
