Hello Families- I am so excited to be back at Meeker this year. I love Meeker and especially its students. This will be my 7th year in 1st grade and my 11th year at Meeker. I love teaching 1st graders. It is so fun to see them grow throughout the year. 

A little about me: I have my undergrad from UNC in communications and then later received my teaching license through the post bac program at UNC. I also have my master's degree in reading from Adams State. I have 2 kids of my own, Colton will be in 9th grade this year and Paisley will be in 4th grade. They keep me busy with their sports and activities. I am married and we have 2 dogs, Layla and Billy. 

1st grade happenings:

 We follow Meeker Leadership Rules in 1st grade. Our Leader in Me Program helps students to become responsible, helpful and thoughtful about our learning.This also helps students take ownership of their learning. Every day we will be practicing a different habit to become our best selves. Here is the website for more information: https://www.theleaderinme.org/

I can't wait for a new and exciting year. 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me:
