About me
This is my eleventh year teaching at Yorkville Middle School.  I graduated from Monmouth College with a degree in Education and Spanish and later finished my certification for a Reading Specialist program through the University of St. Francis.  Yorkville Middle School has given me many amazing teaching opportunities including Spanish courses, communications and resource classes.  This school year I am excited to be teaching seventh grade language arts.  During my free time, I like to read and be active.  I also enjoy playing with my children, Christopher and Charlotte, and my dog, Pappie.  When I was a middle school student, I spent most of my time playing soccer, hanging out with friends and doing school work. :)
