A little about me: 

This will be my 21st year of teaching, and I have taught Kindergarten (10 yrs), First Grade (2 yrs), and Third Grade (8 yrs).  I have been married for 22 years to Barry and I have 3 kids.  Luke is in 12th grade.  Wesley is in 11th grade, and Kate is in 9th grade.  I love to read and do scrapbooking.  I am a singer and teach 1st and 2nd grade choir at my church.
