I've been part of the Anchorage School District for twenty years, as a 5/6 ,first grade, 2/3 grade optional teacher and a K-12 librarian, but I still feel the excitement of a new school year and of being with my students. Teaching is a creative process with knowledge, wonder and passion all thrown together in a wonderful mix. I never tire of learning about new ideas and new ways to share and connect with my students and their families. I strive to create a learning environment that is respectful, “hands on”, and with high academic and behavior expectations. Learning is an ongoing process and a joy. I love bringing that sense of joy to the classroom and fostering in my students their own passion for learning.
