This is my 2nd year as the FRC Coordinator for both JHS & TVES.  Last year was great and now coming back with a year under my belt I'm excited to see the kids returning to us, meeting all the new families, and looking forward to a great year!  My favorite color is purple... but for those who know me I'm obsessed with tie dye and rainbows and alllll the colors!  I'm a very crafty person and enjoy sharing that passion with the kids, especially kindness rocks & tie dye. I listen to a wide variety of music across many ages as my dad was a music teacher so I was always exposed to it all.  I'm a sucker for upbeat things I can sing and dance around to.  I'm also a huge animal lover (I have a dog named Bailee and cat named Stabler), as well as obsessed with the beach and soaking up all the Auntie time with my 6 nieces and nephews when I can!   I want the kids to look forward to coming to us daily, and not wanting to leave... gives me such joy to know they love their time with us.

I have been at FRC now for 30 years! I work both the morning and afternoons at JHS.  My favorite color is red.  I love making coffee filter snowflakes with the kids in the winter.  I enjoy listening to rock and roll.  I have 7 grandchildren and love them to pieces.  I want the kids that come to us to enjoy coming and have loads of fun!

I've been working for FRC for 15 years now!  I get to see the kids grow up at JHS and then when they come over to TVES I see them again as I work in the cafeteria there.  My favorite color is blue.  I really enjoy doing activities and crafts based on all the holidays.  I enjoy listening to Motown music, especially in the car.  My son recently got married and I had 12 family members visiting from Italy for 2 weeks, it was a party every night!  I hope that when the kids come to FRC they can come talk to me anytime and feel comfortable.  I want them to be happy which makes me happy!

I have been working at FRC now 9 years.  I work the afternoons at TVES. This year I'm going to also do a few afternoons at JHS! My favorite color is blue.  I love to garden and helped out with a garden club last year at TVES.  I enjoy listening to folk music and James Taylor.  I like to go camping and spending time with all my cats at home.  I hope the kids that come to us have fun and laugh.  

I've been here with FRC for 7 years already.  I work the mornings at JHS.  My favorite color is blue.  I love doing paper crafts with the kids and celebrating their birthdays!  I really enjoy listening to oldies music.  I love to travel and have been to Italy multiple times.  I hope the kids have fun as well as feeling loved and special to me!

FRC has been my 2nd family for 6 years now.  I work both mornings and afternoons at TVES. This year I'm going to also do a few afternoons at JHS! My favorite colors are Turquoise and maroon.  I love painting with the kids and will be doing my painting club with a little spin again this year.  I like listening to pop and classic rock.  I have 2 bog dogs at home (Bernese Mountain dog/New Foundland mix and an English Cream Golden Retriever).  While the kids are with us, I want to make sure they trust me and other staff members and come up to us without hesitation!  

This year is my 6th year working within FRC.  I jump between our Pre-K program as well as JHS & TVES.  My favorite color is black.  I love to color with the kids when I'm at TVES especially.  I enjoy listening to alternative rock as well as some rap and country music.  I am a big car fan, and surprisingly know a lot about them.  My goal is to give the kids a positive environment while they're with us after school! 

This year is my 3rd year at FRC.  I currently work afternoons only a few days a week at JHS.  My favorite color is blue.  I love to draw and especially with the kids (and doing a drawing club this year!)  I like to listen to pop, rock, and indie music.  I have a dog, and love to read & write on my spare time.  I want the kids to feel that FRC is a place where they have fun and feel safe! 

This year starts my 2nd year working at FRC.  I work afternoons at JHS & TVES.  My favorite color is black.  I really enjoyed our tie dye activity last year and can't wait to do it again.  I enjoy listening to pop, indie & rock music.  I have a dog at home that I love.  I enjoy running on my spare time as well as going hiking on trails.  I want the kids to feel that FRC is a place that is enriching and welcoming!

I just started here with FRC this year.  I'll be working mornings at JHS.  My favorite color is orange.  I like coloring and painting and can't wait to do so with the kids.  I like to listen to 50's and 60's music.  I like going to Aruba when I can and enjoy time I can spend with family and friends as well as meeting new people.  Fun fact about me, I went to clowning school in FL!  I want all the kids with us to feel loved, special, and looking forward to having fun and making memories with us.  

I'm new to FRC at JHS but know some of the other morning workers from another job.  My favorite color is green.  I really enjoy reading books and doing puzzles with the kids.  I like to listen to 60's music and the "top 40." I grew up in short beach and live in Branford.  I want the kids to know how to be kind and respect others while at FRC with us.  

I'm the newest to the FRC staff, but I used to work here a few years ago and still remember some of the kids.  I will be working at both FRC sites. My favorite color is Black. I enjoy coloring with the kids when they're with us.  I like to listen to indie, rock/metal and pop music when I'm not working.  I want the kids to have fun know that we offer them a safe place at FRC.
