Dear Parents,
I am so excited to introduce myself as your child’s math teacher. I have been actively involved with math education, teaching and tutoring for more than 40 years. It is my PASSION. I can’t wait to share this enthusiasm with your child. I want every student to like math and find success in the subject.
Every student can learn math.
This will be my 21th year at Sacred Heart School but I have a total of 28 years of teaching experience. I attended Luther College where I received my education degree and Upper Iowa University, where I received additional classroom endorsements. I also earned an accounting certificate from Simpson College and passed the CPA exam. All my continuing education hours have involved mathematics and/or the middle school student.
I am a widowed mother of two grown daughters, both graduates of the University of Iowa. They both live in the metro area and I love it. They were Colorado residents for a long time. I enjoy exercising, baking, HGTV, refinishing furniture and watching all sports, especially the Iowa Hawkeyes.
I am looking forward to interacting with you and your child this upcoming school year. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Baker
