I am so pleased to be your teacher this year and to help guide your education through the building blocks of the 5th grade educational standards. You will be challenged and encouraged to set rigorous goals. Those goals will be set to ensure that you can take advantage of all and any opportunities in your educational future. Some background about me is I grew up in Stockton, and attended SUSD schools, then moved to Tracy with family during High School. I graduated from San Joaquin Delta College with my Associate in Liberal Arts and an Associate in Science. I attended Sacramento State and graduated from the University of the Pacific with my bachelor's in Organizational Behavior. I am a mother of three amazing babies. Being a mother and teacher are two things in life that I take great pride and joy in. I am looking forward to engaging in wonderful academic conversations in order to teach and challenge every student.
