Welcome to 4th Grade!!
I am originally from Mandan, ND. I come from a family of educators! All of us graduated from Minot State University and have been involved in education! So, teaching and coaching just came naturally!
I am currently in my 26th year of teaching! I began my teaching career in Halliday, ND. There I taught 3/4 Grades for 3 years. I also was Head Volleyball Coach and Ass't Girls Basketball Coach. Next, I taught First Grade and 3/4 Grades at Burke Central School in Lignite, ND for 9 years. I also was Head Volleyball Coach and also helped coach basketball. This lead me to Kenmare School where I have now entered my 14th year of teaching here. I love teaching and I'm always looking for new and exciting ideas to implement into my classroom. I have a B.S. in Education, Art - Minor, and a Middle School Endorsement.
I have been married to my wonderful husband, Richard, for 21 years. We have 4 wonderful children. We have three boys and one girl. Their names are Colby, Riley, Delaney, and Kenley. Colby will be in 2nd year at Dakota College of Bottineau and playing baseball for the Lumberjacks. Riley will be attending his first year at Dakota College of Bottineau to play baseball and work on his generals. Delaney will be in the 8th Grade, and Kenley will be in the 4th Grade.
I coach 7th and 8th Grade Girls Volleyball and 7th and 8th Grade Girls Basketball. I have also coached basketball for the 5th and 6th Grade Girls and Boys. I am also the Math Meet Coordinator for Grade 3-6.
