Always An Educator

I'm a retired educator teaching all my years in first grade. Retirement doesn't mean you are no longer an educator. You will be an educator for life.

About Me

My life has revolved around educators. My parents were both educators–dad went from being a teacher, asst. principal, principal to working at the district office,

whereas, mom taught 3rd grade until she stayed home to take care of 4 children all born within 5 years of each other. They were the reason I wanted to become

a teacher. Although my dad wanted me to choose a different profession, I had to go where my heart was.

I taught all of my years in first grade. I loved seeing the growth from the beginning of the year to the end. My last few years I worked part time as a Literacy Coach.

That was also a special time for me!

My life didn’t stop with just my parents being educators. Almost 38 years ago, I married my husband who was an educator in high school. We had two children-

Lauren (a 3rd grade teacher) is married to Adam (a high school math teacher) and Michael (a 2-6 grade science teacher) is married to Caroline. We have 4

awesome grandchildren.
