I firmly believe that each and every child holds within them the possibility to be a leader. This does not necessarily mean that they will one day hold a political position, high position in a company, or something of the like. Being a leader means so much more. My goal is to help each child discover the ability they have to accomplish their dreams. In order to accomplish their dreams they need foundational skills in the core subject areas, a determination to persevere when things get tough, and a willingness to collaborate with others (noticing that Together is Better).

I look forward to working with each family this year to bring out the leader in every student in my class. I look forward to helping them see their worth and potential and rise with the leadership qualities that will enable them to reach their goals and achieve their dreams.
