Meet Your Teacher

Welcome

I have made this page to share a little bit about me and and what I am about. There is far more information here than most will want or need, but feel free to take a look around.

You may call anytime at the above number. My schedule varies greatly from day to day and week to week. I try to get into the classroom as much as possible, but can often be found in my office from 3:30pm until 5:30pm. Leave a message on voicemail if you wish, or have me paged if it is important. If you are someone who needs to get in touch with me often, ask me for my cell phone number...I might give it to you. :)

Mission Statement

My mission is to empower students to identify and develop their God-given strengths; to discover the courage necessary to acquire opportunities and skills that eliminate obstacles in their lives; and to inspire and lead them to strive to always pursue excellence. I will foster in my students a sense of responsibility, integrity, self-reliance, and self-awareness. I will endeavor to fulfill this mission even when I am discouraged by the complexities associated with understanding teenagers as I continue undaunted toward my ultimate goal.
