“The classroom is my ‘home away from home’ and an atmosphere that I strive to make welcoming and safe for my students. I love taking the time to build strong relationships with each child who walks into my room. One of my main goals in the classroom is to guide my students as they develop a love for learning and a love for Jesus!”
