Philosophy/Expectations: Being a part of a child's education and development is a privelege. In partnership with parents as the student's primary educator, I hope to guide and support students in their growth to becoming compassionate, thoughtful, and faith-filled community members. I hope to create a nurturing and safe classroom environment in which students will achieve their best, believe in themselves, and challenge themselves to do better. With the help of parents and of God, I hope to empower students and push them to do more than they believe can. I sincerely believe that if students are challenged, they will gain more self-confidence with each passing achievement. Students will then be able achieve anything.
