Welcome to fifth grade! I am looking forward to preparing our scholars for middle school and beyond, as well as seeing students challenge themselves to learn and grow. Let’s communicate throughout the 2025-2026 school year to ensure your child’s success! 

Before we embark on this journey together, here’s some info about myself and our classroom.

This is my 8th year teaching and 4th year at Gateway! I previously taught third and fourth grade at Gateway, and before that, I spent my first four years teaching second and third grade in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. In 2018, I graduated from Michigan State University.

Our class will use the ClassDojo app to communicate and track student behavior. I will post daily about any assigned homework, as well as important events and updates. This is also the best way to message me. Please make sure Gateway and/or myself have the correct phone number and email address for you at the beginning of the school year, which I will use to send out our ClassDojo invite.

We're going to have an amazing year in fifth grade!
