I have been at Polenta Elementary for 10 years, where I have taught 1st and 2nd grade. I taught 1st grade for five years and this upcoming year will be my fifth year in 2nd grade. This year I will be teaching my class virtual! I am very excited about this upcoming year and the new adventures we will have!
