Hi!  I'm so excited to be teaching 1st grade at DES again this year.  I am beginning my 21st year of teaching, and I still get just as excited as I did my first year.   I am an animal lover and enjoy sharing stories with the kids throughout the year of different animals I've ancountered and tried to help.   

I love the beach and try to visit it often.  

I look forward to another great year with the kiddos.  They never cease to amaze me with what they are capable of learning.  We might be in the midst of uncertain times, but one thing is certain---we will have a great year of laughter, learning, and love!  

Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.  Thank you!!
