Biography

I teach K, 1 and 2 in the Primary Bilingual Orientation Center. This is a self contained classroom for students who are new to the United States and speak little or no English. I support them in learning English at an accelerated pace as well as helping them to acculturate to the United States.

I love the diverse students and staff at James Baldwin as well as the willingness of everyone (students included!) to help each other.

I have taught in the Primary BOC for 6 years. Before that I taught kindergarten in Highline School District for 7 years. I started my teaching career as a full time substitute. I subbed in schools all over the Seattle School District for 4 years.

Biography

Hi! I teach 4th-grade at James Baldwin Elementary. I've been teaching 4th (and one year, both 4th and 5th grades), since 2013.

There are so many things I love about James Baldwin that I can't possibly write them all here. Here are some of them: We have an amazingly diverse group of students, families, and staff. I also love being part of a classroom and school community which focuses on teamwork to make sure everyone is learning and is being respected.

When I am not teaching (or preparing to teach), I love spending time at home, I love my dog, I enjoy going to the gym and I've even tried playing some volleyball recently.
