Education is at the core of The American Dream. It is the great equalizer. It is the key to breaking down barriers and building strong communities. Education is the backbone and the life blood of our nation. I was proud to become a teacher in the Fall of 1987, and I am blessed to have the opportunity to continue teaching here at Great Falls Elementary.
