I am excited to be starting my 8th year at Blanchard Elementary and my 26th year teaching.  I have previously taught 15 years in California and 3 years in Arkansas.

I am looking forward to working with my class this year.   My goals are to help students master skills needed to be successful in fourth grade.  These include academic and social skills. It is important to me to keep students actively involved at all times and interested in learning.

We will have a busy, exciting year.  I look forward to meeting each child's parents soon.
