Welcome to Kindergarten!

This is my 8th year at Prairie Winds and I am so excited for the year! I love this age! They have such a desire to learn and grow, make friends, and try new things! My goal is to provide a fun, organized and uplifting classroom where your child feels safe, loved, and successful!

I was born and raised in Kettering, Ohio. My husband and I have lived in Monument since 1996. We have ten children and twelve grandchildren. We love spending time together! 

I have wanted to be a teacher since I was five years old! I earned a BA from Brigham Young University. I then spent the next thirty wonderful years raising children. When my youngest started 1st grade, I jumped back into teaching and I absolutely love it! I'm looking forward to a year full of laughter, hard work, and growth!
