A little information about myself:
I grew up in Humboldt. I have 2 BA degrees from Buena Vista; a MA degree from Morningside College & the above endorsements.
I served two years on the State Special Education Advisory Committee.
My role as an academic interventionist is to analyze reading and math test scores, identify students who are not proficient, and by the use of additional diagnostic assessments will find the exact intervention that students need.
I collaborate with Miss Hanna Bush, the WDM ESOL instructor (English to Speakers of Other Languages), to support our English language learners. I share my room with the WDM special ed instructor & ensure the IEP students are supported in their classrooms.
We know that students learn differently and will help your child be successful!
I enjoy playing piano for our school Masses & working with the student singers so they are confident and enjoy singing for God!
Personal:
I am the music director at St. Luke's parish in Ankeny.
I love 4-H and have been a 4-H judge at county fairs for over 23 years and an Iowa State Fair 4-H judge for 14 years.
My husband, Shane, and I have two adult children - Shanna & Skyler.
We have two grandchildren - Jalen, a 5th grader here, and his sister, Tinsley, 2
