WELCOME to , Fifth Grade gold Students & Parents!
Mission statement............We work best when we work together...............
I have taught 5th grade in the Minooka school district for the past 15 years. Prior to this, I chose to stay home and raise my children until they were all in school; a decision that I have never regretted. Fresh out of college, or my PK (pre-kid) period, I taught 6th, 7th and 8th grade Language Arts. I love what I do, and what I have learned from teaching has guided me with my own children and vice versa. I look forward to every new class that I have the privilege of working with each year.

My husband and I have lived in Minooka for 20 years. We have five wonderful children: John, 29, who is a graduate of University of St. Francis and works as an accountant, Thomas, 28, who is played baseball at ACU while earning his teaching degree. He married his high school sweetheart and are currently expecting their first child. Michael, 25, is a union carpenter like his father, and 5 years ago gave me my first grandchild Shayden who will be attending Kindergarten this year. Brendan, 22, who is in his last year of college at ISU and will graduate with a degree in cyber security and Kelly is 20 and will graduate this year with a degree in Graphic Design. i can't forget Murphy our Red Lab who keeps us on our toes! We live out in the country, because where else would you raise that many kids! I am enjoying watching my children as they grow up into the wonderful young men and woman that I knew they could be and of course spending time with my grandson.
