Welcome to my classNew adventures await you and your child in the sixth grade. The idea of being in the Junior High is sometimes scary but it is also exciting.
Welcome to another wonderful school year. I am so excited for a new school year with each and every child. My background is in upper elementary math and reading. I received my Bachelors and my Masters at the University of Toledo. I have been apart of the Bedford school system since 1993 working as a Kindergarten teacher and 5th grade teacher at TRE. After taking some time off to raise my children I returned to working with children at risk in reading and writing at MRE and JRE. I knew that the classroom was my true love. I was lucky to be able to return to 6th grade at the Jr High. For the past two years I have been teaching Science, Math and Social Studies in a two man team. This year I have ventured back to two main subjects, being Science and ELA. With my background of having taught all subjects in 6th grade, I will be able to work with my students in all main subject areas when they have questions. My husband Kevin and I live in Bedford with our three children, Kendra 28, Kylie 19 and Kade 18. All of our children have attended Bedford Schools and have received a great education. Kylie is beginning her sophomore year at Lourdes and Kade will be beginning his first year at BGSU. This year my two youngest are venturing out to live on campus, empty nest is is here. We have a two Great Danes Kerra and CoCo, both of whom are rescues and total babies. We enjoy spending time at our cottage where the kids enjoy doing water sports. I personally enjoy reading while the family is out on the water. |
My Mission
My mission for this year is to create a positive learning environment where all children can feel safe and respected. Along with that it is my goal to help children learn, believe in oneself, and to tackle the challenges that they may encounter with confidence.
Here are a few of the major rules that will be enforced
* Be prepared at all times * Treat others with respect * Bullying others will not be tolerated * Always give 100% If there is a concern that I have with your student, I will talk with the student and/ or will send a brief email home concerning the matter. If there is a serious issue, a phone call/email home will be made. |
