I am originally from Illinois but, I have lived in Arizona for the last 25 years, and consider it my home.  I have been teaching for 21 years. In my career, I have taught kindergarten, first grade and second grade.  I have been teaching at Bellair school for 18 years and consider it my second home.  My family includes,my husband my 3 daughters, my son-in-law and a 23 month old granddaughter.  My daughters are 30, 28, and 24.  I love teaching 2nd grade and look forward to a new year.
