Welcome to 5th grade!  It is an honor to be working with your child this school year. My classroom is a structured environment where all children have an opportunity to grow academically, socially, and emotionally,  With encouragement, your child will have many opportunities to take part in exciting  and rewarding activities this academic year.

This is my 26th year of teaching in Murrieta, twenty-three of those at Tovashal.  I earned a BA in Education and an MA in Curriculum and Instructional Leadership, both from National University.  I have two grown children, and I am a proud grandmother, as well.
