1st Semester I assisted the kindergarten teacher until after lunch, then I taught 8th grade math and PE in the afternoon.
2nd Semester I was asked to teach 6th and 7th grade in a combined classroom setting. All subject areas were taught.
I worked here 2 different times - Aug. 1994-96 and again from Aug. 2000-May 2002. I taught the 3rd grade both times.
I love to read and spend time with my family. I have been married to Monty for nearly 30 years. We are blessed with our two children, Sierra Adams and her husband, Josh, and our son, Hunter Beach.
