I am looking forward to an exciting and successful school year with your children. Even though the classroom will not be as we are used to, I will do everything I can to make this experience full of fun learning, growing and progressing throughout the school year. This will be my 16th year teaching in District 162; my 14th year teaching kindergarten within District 162 and my sixth year at Matteson Elementary.  I am thrilled to be working with the staff at Matteson again; plus, meeting all of my new students.  Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments or concerns.  It is going to be an extraordinary year!
