I retired from Cape Elizabeth Middle School at the end of June 2022, after forty years of teaching, the last thirty-one years at CEMS. I've taught pre-school to AP level throughout my career but I'm especially fond of the middle school age group.

I'm excited to continue developing lessons and ideas to share on social media. I want to continue helping students to make global connections using their language skills. I'm also very interested in researching traditional games and their cultural importance.

I will be a substitute teacher in Cape Schools during 2022-23 and I might do some consulting work. I'm still planning my next steps in this new adventure so stay tuned.

My school supply lists are posted below. 📕✏️📓✂️🖍 You don't need all your supplies the first day, aim for after Labor Day. I notice that school supplies are currently low or wiped out in many stores.
