Hello First Grade Parents!

I am so excited to join the Sacred Heart team. Although this is my first year teaching here, I am very familiar with the school. My grandparents were involved in the church while my mom and her siblings attended school here, my sister and I attended school here as well (K-8th grade), and my sister and I both worked at Sacred Heart Plus!
I have worked at Sacred Heart Plus for 10 summers and I would help out with the after school and after preschool program throughout high school and college. 

I previously taught 2nd grade at St. Anthony in Des Moines. I absolutely loved 2nd grade, but I am so excited to be in 1st grade! I recently graduated with my Masters in Education with an emphasis in English as a Second Language (ESL).

When I am not teaching, I love to spend time with my friends and family. I come from a family of educators - my uncle is the new superintendednt of Colfax-Mingo, my aunt is a Kindgarten teacher in Des Moines Public, and my cousin is a middle school teacher at Winterset! When I am not talking education with my family, I love being able to support my sister in her adventures. She played volleyball for Dowling all 4 years and is now attending KU (Rock Chalk!).

I am so excited to be back at Sacred Heart and I look forward to meeting all of you! Please know that I am always here for you and your child, communication is key so please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

God Bless!
