First and foremost, I want you all to know how happy and blessed I feel to be the new Special Education Department Chair. I am extremely excited about this new position and I’m looking forward to continue to lead the department in an upward direction toward excellence.
I have been working with the Lynn Public School Department since 1994 where I began my career in the Speech and Language Department. Since then, I’ve been in various positions including, resource teacher for substantially separate students and most recently an Inclusion/Team Teacher. I love my job and I love working for Lynn Public Schools. Each day is a new one which brings forth new experiences. I have and continue to learn from my students and peers every day. My students and peers have helped shape who I am today, and for that I am truly grateful.
My beliefs are simple:
- Try your best and be prepared.
- Put the effort into you.
- You are given the opportunity to be educated. Take it!
- You are in charge of your own success.
- Your future is in your hands. We can give you the tools, but you need to use them.
- Smart is not what you are, Smart is what you get….Get Smart!!!
Practice school as if you were practicing for a sport or activity. The more you exercise the stronger your become. Same with school, the more you study and practice, the stronger your brain will be.
I am truly excited to work with parents, guardians, students, paraprofessionals and teachers. Know, if there is anything I can do, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I am available every day after school until at least 3:30. Please stop by to introduce yourself and please encourage your son/daughter to stop by for extra help.
