About Me.
After teaching five years in Wilson, NC, I am extremely excited about beginning a new chapter in my life journey by relocating to Cary with my husband, son and daughter.
When I learned that Carpenter Elementary School was less than 5 minutes from my home, I became even more excited. As an experienced First Grade teacher, who has developed a passion and personal commitment to helping my students succeed, I now have an opportunity to be in a community where many of the students from the school reside. That will be a very special experience for me, and I am looking forward to having a positive impact on students and parents in the community. Last year, I was very productive in my classroom because of my personal teaching style, dedication to students, ability to create a positive learning environment, and positive reports on individual student performance. As a result of my success in improving test scores, I received positive feedback from parents and fellow educators for my practices employed in the classroom which met the needs of all the children. The accomplishment I am most proud of during my entire teaching career is having 100% of my students meet proficiency consecutively over the 5 years of my career and being recognized as Teacher of the Year at Gardners Elementary School for the 2016-2017 school year. I am confident that I will have a successful year here at Carpenter Elementary School while engaging in my first year round school experience. |
