Welcome to OFFICIALLY being a part of the PEAK process and classroom! I am now your fulltime Reading and LA teacher, giving you grades for both subjects. We will dig DEEPLY into Vocabulary, Novel studies, and learning new ways to research efficiently and accurately. We are going to challenging work, but we'll have fun along the way! It is going to be a WONDERFUL year!

Welcome to 5th Grade! You are now our Vocabulary experts, so you are ready for all of our word studies. Also, we will continue our book studies, and 5th grade has some of the BEST OF THE BEST books to study! Additionally, we will be doing a NEW research learning unit to strengthen your ability to research effectively and efficiently. I can't wait to get started on our last year together - it's going to be GREAT!

I've been at teacher with HEB ISD since 2007.  Prior to this, I taught for 7 years in Nashville, TN.  I grew up in HEB ISD, so I know how lucky your kiddos are to be a part of this district! I graduated from Abilene Christian University with a BS in Speech Pathology, received my teacher's certification at Middle Tennessee State University, and have a Masters in Special Education Behavior Disorders from Vanderbilt University. I love being back home in DFW, and I especially love being a part of the Bell Manor Staff! This is a fantastic school:).
