Discovery Elementary School - July 28, 2023
A Note From The Principal
I am so excited for the upcoming school year. It will be fantastic to see familiar faces and to meet those of you who are new.
I wanted to take a chance to provide a little information about myself for those new to Discovery before we kick off a great school year. I am married to my husband Brady, and we have two children, Kyra (age 12) and Kaiden (age 10). When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I enjoy traveling to new places or to our family cabin in McCall. I also spend a lot of time at the dance studio with Kyra or taking Kaiden to run or play golf.
This is my 19th year in the West Ada School District. I have taught both 2nd and 4th grade, learned as elementary principal intern, served as the Assistant Principal at Desert Sage and am excited for my third year with Discovery team!
Discovery is a great place to be and I look forward to continuing on great traditions and working to build new ones. Be sure to enjoy the rest of your summer and we look forward to seeing you very soon!
