World Cultures
I began my teaching career in 1993 in Florence, Texas where I taught a variety of subjects and coached several sports. I've been at Chisholm Trail since 1997. I taught Language Arts for 21 years, but jumped at the opportunity to make the change to World Cultures.
I am a graduate of Canyon Vista Middle School, Westwood High School, and Texas Lutheran University. My husband George and I have two children- Victoria, a recent graduate of Baylor University and Grayson, an Airman in the Air Force in Georgia.
My purpose is to create a welcome and accepting environment full of ideas and wonderings while exploring world cultures.
