All About Me

 

I am very excited to have the opportunity to work with your child this year!   This is my twenty-fifth year in education.  Several years ago I decided to pursue the gifted endorsement.  I was amazed by everything I learned and how the endorsement changed me as a teacher.  I continue to believe that all children can learn and that instruction should be differentiated to meet the needs of all learners.  I firmly believe that gifted students should be continuously challenged.  It is important to remember that giftedness comes in many different forms.  Some students can be academically gifted while others can be musically gifted.  No matter the level of giftedness, I hope to continually challenge your child to become a competent problem solver with the ability to adequately use the twenty-first century skills that are necessary for today’s society.  I look forward to working with each and every child.  I consider it an  honor to be a part of your child’s gifted education.
