WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO
I am looking forward to fostering wonder in the minds of my students as we build a solid foundation in math, history, science and literacy. I love the enthusiasm, energy and willingness to learn that I find so invigorating in first grade students. I can't wait to get started as we learn the true, do the good and love the beautiful.
