Years in Education: 17 

Years at MAA: 16 

Why I teach: I am passionate about immersing students in a world of educational experiences. I appreciate the opportunity to share daily questions, challenges, and discoveries with my students. My love of learning with and from children is what drives me to teach. Ms. Cash and I have a strong partnership with the Kindergarten team.

Our Kindergarten team of teachers and aides creates a safe, inviting environment for students to embark on their journey through elementary school. Beyond learning academics, students become members of a group who share responsibilities. Class jobs are an important part of cultivating a cooperative, responsible classroom for learners. Students are proud to perform a new job each week knowing each person makes a difference.
