When I started teaching 1st grade in 1982, I had no idea that 5 years later I would begin teaching the second-grade and continue for 33 years. I am now the part-time primary grades Master Teacher with a specialty in literacy. My position allows me to collaborate with the classroom teachers and step in where I am needed. I assess students, monitor the Lexia program, work with morning mass readers, do yard duty, and substitute teach. I have the pleasure of working with students individually and in small groups which allows me to use games and manipulatives to focus on specific learning skills. What a joy it is to see the lightbulb of understanding shine in a child’s eyes! I am the proud mother of three alumni. Mount Carmel is like a second family to me and a blessing in my life.
