Happy Fall

It’s back! We are heading over to the Greenwood Library on Friday. A permission slip was sent home and I have attached one in case you need it. Let me know if you would like to walk with us. We leave will meet outside of our classroom at 10:30. Remind your student to bring their library card to school.

Homework: Please continue to check and sign your student’s planner daily. If your child is unable to complete their homework, please write a note in the planner. They are responsible for completing the missing work the following night. Homework should take between 15 and 30 minutes.

I received my initial certification in Special Education/Elementary Education from Western Washington University. I hold a Montessori Degree from Northwest Montessori school and a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction: Reading and Writing from Lesley University. I began my teaching career with a variety of classroom positions and joined the St John faculty in 1990 as a Kindergarten teacher. I later moved to 2nd grade, then to middle school where for the past 10 years I have taught a variety of subjects most currently as 8th grade homeroom and middle school religion teacher. Last year I asked to move to 4th grade, a grade I have never taught before. I am a native Seattleite growing up in the Wedgewood neighborhood and attending OLL and Blanchet high school. I am a wife, mother of 3 adult daughters, and one granddaughter. What I love most about teaching is experiencing the joy that learning brings to my students.
