I am happy to be a part of such a wonderful faculty, school and community.  I am ready to SOAR with the Eagles.  I agree with the philosophy that it takes a village to raise a child and can assure you, that while in my care I will treat your child as if they were my own.  I will nurture, care for and most importantly teach them.   It is my goal to teach the students writing, reading, speaking skills along with grammar and survival tips for day to day living.  I hope to take the students on a journey they will not forget.

My motto for is:  THE WAY YOU DO ANYTHING, IS THE WAY YOU DO EVERYTHING. 

Let's take this journey together, because there is no I in TEAM.
