Welcome to Third Grade!  I am so excited about the adventure we are about to embark on.  We have many wonderful learning opportunities that will help your child grow and succeed in their education.  I believe if we all work together as a team your child can and will succeed. 

I was born and raised in California.  I studied biology at Covenant College and worked as a dental assistant for many years.  I married my college sweetheart, Jeff and we have six, beautiful children and seventeen wonderful grandchildren. Did I mention I love kids? I went back to college after my children were all in school and earned my teaching degree from Converse College.  I taught 7th and 8th grade science for ten years before coming to Monarch.  This is my twelfth year teaching at Monarch.

I look forward to working with you and your child this year! Please feel free to contact me anytime.  Thank you so much for all your support.
