Personally:
I have been married to Harry for 30 years. We have 3 children, two boys and a daughter. Paul just got married and is in his 4th year at medical school. David is a senior at Oklahoma Christian studying Biology, and Emily is going into 9th grade. She is in the band and made the drill team.
College and Educational Background:
I graduated from Abilene Christian University and taught adults Microsoft Word and Excel. I have been teaching school children for the last nine years. I taught seventh grade for 4 years at Howard/Finely and fourth grade for 4 years at Ferris ISD. I am very thankful to be able to return to Waxahachie. I love helping children learn how to read and be life long learners!
Hobbies and Favorite Things to Do:
I love to travel, read, and swim. We split our traveling time between Galveston visiting with our oldest son and in Edmond, Oklahoma to see our second son in college. At home, we spend time with Emily our daughter. She is going into High school and will be extremely busy in the band and on the dance team. Our evenings are spent chasing our dog Pepper and our two cats, Smokey and Bandit.
What I'm bringing to the Wedgeworth Team:
Love Goggle Classroom!! - Go chromebooks and ipads - more please!! Incorporating technology with reading and writing makes the classroom incredible! Analyzing the data, tearing the tests apart and helping the children be successful while learning to love reading is my passion!
