Welcome to First Grade!

As a farm girl from Westphalia, I enjoy spending time with my family, volunteering as an RCIA sponsor, cultivating my garden, cooking, reading, and refinishing furniture. I have a BA degree in Elementary Education and Integrated Science from CMU, and I am working towards my MA in Reading and Literacy K-12. I have had experience as a K-3rd grade reading tutor, long term substitute teacher, and assistant preschool teacher. Working with the younger grades has always been my niche, and I am excited to share my knowledge, faith, and love of learning with my new first grade family!
