Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher mainly because of my Kindergarten Teacher. She was soo kind to me. That imprinted on me. I recall having fun at a young age so I want to create lasting memories for my students.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience was hosting a Father’s Day celebration a few years ago. It was great to see Fathers come together to be acknowledged. They had a marvelous time. Unfortunately, not long after one of the dads was tragically killed. So I’m glad I gave that child an experience to be with his dad and grandad in his preschool classroom.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I won I would give to my church, share with my family and then take a Dream Vacation to Venice Italy with my husband.
