Welcome to my Resource Site!
I want you to know that I am available to you and your children for non-emergencies. I can email with you or your student, talk via phone, through email or google meet. I can also link you with outside resources. These can include mental well being, food and other resources. Please check back frequently as I will continue to update resources found below.
**** Please note emails and calls are NOT for emergencies****
If you are having an emergency call 911.
If there is a crisis during this time and you need to see or talk to someone right away please contact 1-614-722-1800 Nationwide Children's Hospital Crisis Hotline, or text “HOME” to 741741. These are both options at any time of the day, 24/7/365.
