And so starts a new chapter

When one door closes, another one opens. In my case a door that leads into a fantastic classroom; complete with my own office!

I am starting a new chapter in my life as an ABS cluster teacher at Eastmont Middle School in Sandy, UT. I will be a proud Patriot and educator to 12 wonderful 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students. Yes, I know what you're thinking; only 12 students? Well, they are wonderfully active and exceptional students that mostly fall into the EBD category, so 12 students is plenty. 

I will be teaching Math, Science, Social Studies, Language Arts, Reading, Social Skills/Character Development, and PE/Health! Wow, I got tired just typing that!
I am lucky though, because I will have a part-time and full-time paraprofessional in the class to help make the class run smoothly. ;)

The administration is AMAZING and super supportive, and the district has been wonderful to work with. I had the pleasure of meeting many of the teachers at a training in June where they were welcoming and accommodating even though training happened after the school year was over.  That right there made me realize that these were professional educators willing to make themselves, and thus their students, the best they can be.

My smiling face and bio should be up on the Eastmont website soon, so take a look and let me know what you think. GO PATRIOTS!
