Welcome to First Grade! I am so excited to have you in my class. This is my sixteenth year teaching and I have been at Odell for all of those years except one. I have taught first grade and fourth grade during my career. I love teaching first grade because it is a year full of growth! I received my undergraduate degree from Michigan State University in Communication. Go Spartans! I worked as a banker for a few years before I decided to go back to school to get my Masters in Elementary Education from Oakland University. I am married and have twins that attend Odell Elementary. They will be in fourth grade this year. I enjoy reading, yoga and being outdoors. I can't wait to start this school year! I know that we are going to have a great year together.
