Hi! I teach 6th through 8th grade RTI English Language Arts/Reading.
I graduated from THE Ohio State University with honors with a bachelor's degree in Middle Childhood Education and earned my Intervention Specialist licensure from Ashland University. I also hold a reading endorsement that enables me to be highly trained in teaching reading. I came here after teaching for 6 years at West Muskingum Local Schools where I taught K-3, 3rd grade reading, 5th and 6th grade English Language Arts intervention.
I have two sons- Nathan who is 25 and a medic in Morgantown, West Virginia. He is married and has my three granddaughters (Isabelle, Brooklynn and Natalie) My son, Daniel, is a 2nd Class Petty Officer, Aviation Ordnance in the United States Navy. I am so proud of both of them!
My dog, Mick, who was a foster fail, has been with me for 3 years. He is the CUTEST!
I also have three cats: Bodie and Missy are both 11 years old. Missy is polydactyl and has 26 toes! I also have a gray and white kitty, named Garage Kitty because he lived in my garage for over a year before he would let me touch him and then finally moved into my house! He is awesome! and now fed and clean!
