Hi Seventh Graders!
Having learned about all of you in my
classes lately, there is some information you might want to know about
me.
* This is my eighth year at Beaver
Lake. Before coming here I was teaching 6th grade at Pine Lake. I
have also taught at Sunset, Discovery, and two different middle schools in the
Shoreline District.
* I have two dogs; a Sheltie named Toby, and a
Pomeranian named Bandit.
* I have two daughters. One
works at Children's Hospital in Seattle in the ED and the youngest is studying
abroad in Australia until November and then hopes to enter Nursing School at
Washington State University in Spokane, WA. GO COUGS!
* My favorite activities are
traveling- I have been to Mexico, Canada, Europe, New Zealand and the
Caribbean. I also enjoy playing golf with Mrs. Bach whenever I can. I love
reading a good book while cuddling with my dog.
* I also have a fondness
for pigs. There is a special story behind this that I would be happy to
share with you - just ask me sometime.
* My favorite foods are very, dark
chocolate, lobster tail with lots of melted butter, and I like Starbuck's soy
lattes.
*This is my 27th year of teaching.
I love kids and I love to see them learn responsibility and self-
empowerment. If it seems as though I am strict... I am. I take my job very
seriously. I want you to be ready to move on to the next step after
leaving my classroom. Feel free to talk to me about concerns you are
having. I like parents, but I like students more!! :-)
