About Me:
I grew up in Fishkill. Like my grandfather, mother, father and sister, my education began in Fishkill Elementary School. My middle school years were at Wappingers Junior High School and I graduated from John Jay High School.
I hold a Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education from Susquehanna University in Selinsgrove, PA., and a permanent Teaching Certificate for New York. I also hold a Masters Degree in Reading from Western Connecticut State University, in Danbury, CT. I am proud to be a National Board Certified Teacher.
I was a classroom teacher at Fishkill Elementary for 20 years and am very excited to start my 3rd year in AIS. Prior to AIS, I taught 6 years in second grade, 4 years in kindergarten and 8 years in first grade. I have also taught both 4th and 5th grades. In June 2016, I was honored as Q92's Teacher of the Month!
Mr. Corcoran and I are blessed with three beautiful children: my stepson, Aidan and our daughters, Alexis and Elysia. Aidan is 15, Alexis is (almost) 10 and Elysia is (almost) 6. We reside within the Wappingers School District. Aidan is excited to start 10th grade, Alexis is excited to start 5th grade and Elysia is excited to start 1st grade.
