 Welcome to Kindergarten!!   

The most rewarding thing in teaching kindergarten is seeing a student succeed. I believe students learn best by engaging in fun hands-on learning experiences as well as positive social interactions. The love of learning is an on-going process that is built upon daily within a nurturing, organized and peaceful environment where respect is both given and received. Praise, encouragement and routines are very important. I consider the parents of my kinders a vital support system for a wonderful kindergarten experience.

A little about me:  

I am a kindergarten teacher at Andy Woods Elementary.  This is my 13th year as a kindergarten teacher. My family is from Tyler.  I grew up in the TISD school district and eventually became an Apache Belle.  My son is a graduate of Texas A&M and my daughter is currently attending Tyler Junior College and is also an Apache Belle.  My husband and I have been married for 27 years.
