Today with the help of the IT department our Language Arts class got to meet their pen pals from Culpeper VA. It was truly a great experience to make a visual connection to friends we have been writing to all year.

I have loved teaching for over 30 years. I have been a primary teacher for most of my career and love working with children. I believe that children are the best part of teaching. I have a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown. Outside of school, I live in Richland with my husband. I have two married daughters. One of them is a teacher too! I am also a proud grandma!
