A little bit about ME:
I have been married for well over 30 years to my wonderful husband and have 4 boys or I should say MEN since all 4 are college graduates and begun working at their careers. We have enjoyed living in Mokena for over 25+ years and all of my children have had the benefit of attending Mokena and Lincoln-way school districts.
I have my BS degree in Child Development with a Masters in Education and have taught here at MES for the last 20 years (subbing 6 years prior to that in the district). Before teaching at MES, I taught at the preschool level for 13 years.
One of the unique things about me is we had a family farm in Minnesota where one of my sons worked seasonally for 11 years. I enjoy sharing my memories of the farm with my students and how it has changed over the last 100 years.
I absolutely LOVE teaching Third Grade at MES. We have a great team of teachers and support staff that goes above and beyond for their students. It is a JOY to work here!
See below for our School Calendar, classroom rules & expectations
Classroom Rules
1. Be kind and respectful to all.
2. Listen to and follow all adult directions.
