"Early childhood education is the solid foundation that they will build on for the rest of their educational career. If I can help them to see that learning is fun, being kind is cool, and that they will always have the support of our school family, then I know I am setting them up to be successful. I love getting to be a part of my students’ introduction to school. Every day is an adventure, and I love getting to learn, explore, play and grow with them every day." |
