I am thrilled to have the privilege of serving the Erin School District in the areas of Curriculum and Instruction.   Embracing the strengths of our staff and community, we are working together to create an engaging learning environment for all. Our staff continues to clarify our “guaranteed curriculum,” one that all students experience as they grow and learn at Erin School.

I joined the Erin staff at the start of the 2008-09 school year. Previously, I worked as the Director of Instruction for the Kewaskum School District and was a former middle school teacher. I hold a degree in Elementary Education from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse and have Masters degree in Educational Leadership from Cardinal Stritch University. I serve the district on a part-time basis, but can be reached via e-mail at any time. I welcome your questions and comments.

Beliefs that guide my work include:

• Teachers have the most significant influence on student achievement within factors that schools control.
• Parents are important partners in helping students meet their full potential.
• While all children have different strengths and needs, they all can learn and will be able to demonstrate growth as a result of spending time in our classrooms.
