Welcome to Reading Intervention for the  2023-2024 school year!  I am so glad that you are here. Life has been crazy busy as usual with my family and their schedules.  My son Luke is expected to graduate college this year, although he is convinced that his baseball career is still not over, as he plans to play again this spring since receiving TWO extra years of eligibility due to the pandemic...grrrr.  My second son, Noah is in his sophomore year at Lindenwood University studying Business/Finance and playing football....Go Lions!!  My daughter, Marie is now in her junior year of high school and is continuing to dance and has dreams of somehow landing in NewYork after graduation.  Bringing up the rear is my baby, Lily who just began her freshman year of high school and is very excited to say the least.  My husband, Todd fills his days with countless hours of golf in between chasing our two goofball Goldendoodles, Goose and Maverick. 

I am excited to be back at Adams this school year after a LONNGG year away.  This will be my 4th year at Adams and my 12th year with SLPS (even though I started way back in 1995).  Before Adams, I was a reading teacher at Monroe, Columbia, and Oak Hill.  I began my teaching career as a 1st grade teacher in 1995 at Sherman Elementary.  I love reading because I believe that it is the main building block in the foundation for success in just about all other subjects. 

I am looking forward to working with and celebrating all of our Adam's Alligators!!
