This is my eigth year in the middle school; however, I am not a stranger to teaching middle school. Prior to coming to Barnegat, I worked at the Southern Regional Middle School for ten years. Upon first being hired in Barnegat, I was at the Lillian M. Dunfee (LMDS) Elementary School teaching 5th Grade. After three years at LMDS, I was transferred to the Cecil B. Collins Elementary School where I taught English Language Arts and Math to 2nd to 5th Graders in a Resource Room. I am certified to teach Elementary Education, Middle School Math, Language Arts and Social Studies, and English as a Second Language as well as Special Education.
