Meet the teachers

I come to teaching preschool with 13 years of experience in the Kuna School District at Hubbard Elementary and Indian Creek Elementary, where I worked with Kindergarteners through third graders, mostly as a Paraprofessional in the Title 1 program. I have a college Associates Degree from Ricks College and I have had three years of Para Academy, special training classes for working with students. I especially loved the work I did in the Kindergarten Booster Club, which was used to help write the grant for Kindergrow. Later I worked in the Kindergrow program. I was born in Texas but have traveled around the world, living in Alabama, Texas, Georgia, Germany, Kansas, and Idaho, supporting my husband Howard in his Army career. He retired as a Lieutenant Colonel. We are the parents of 5 children-three daughters and two sons. We were licensed foster parents for several years. Our oldest 4 children are married and we have 9 grandchildren and one more on the way.
