Just a little bit about myself:

     I am now beginning my 20th year of teaching- the last 11 of which have been here at Blair. I love teaching English, and in particular, I enjoy working with Ninth Grade students.

     I am married, and have one child, Lily - your student will probably hear entirely too many Lily stories, since I am a doting mother. I just completed my Master's Degree in Education, hurray!!!

     We have many challenges this year. The first is keeping to a rather demanding pacing plan. By keeping to this pacing plan, your student will be exposed to every standard, many of them multiple times, by the end of the year.

     Please email any questions or comments. I check my email regularly, and will get back to you as quickly as I can. If you put your child's name in the subject line I will know that it is a note from a parent, so I will probably get back to you even more quickly!

I appreciate hearing from both parents and current, as well as former, students. Please feel free to email at any time.
