My classroom is a faith based environment where children are taught about Jesus, prayer, and friendship. I foster a positive, hands-on learning environment where children can be successful and gain independence.  My goal is for my students to enjoy their first experience with school and to develop a positive attitude towards learning. I have been teaching at St. James School since 2014 and bring 10 years previous teaching experience to the classroom.
