Hello Alward Families,

Welcome to Pre-Kindergarten at Alward Elementary! I hope you are excited about the upcoming school year! I am blessed that I get to share my love of learning with your child.   I hope this school year is filled with excitement as we learn together.  I am looking forward to getting to know all the new Pre-Ker's and their families.

As we get started, I wanted to share a little about myself.   This will be my 32nd year in education.  I graduated from WMU with a BS in Elementary Education with an additional minor in Early Childhood Development. I also have my Masters in Elementary Education from WMU! My husband Jeff and I live in Hudsonville.  We have three children Connor who is married to Bri, Gabby and Hope.  I love spending time with my family, doing puzzles, going to the beach, reading and watching reality tv and sports.......especially the Red Wings, Michigan (Go Blue), and Nascar!
