I am committed to bringing all of my students with me on the journey of excellence and I vow to always put the child's need in front of my own. I wish to give them the very best in education so as a teacher I will constantly be changing and evolving into the best that I can be.
In Michigan Child Protection Law requires certain professionals to report their suspicions of child abuse or neglect to Children's Protective Services (CPS) at the Department of Human Services (DHS). These people are mandated reporters and have established relationships with children based on their profession.

As a teacher I am bound by an ethical code that will be upheld at all times. In the event that I need to make a rough decision I will be making it based on on the ethical code and the best interest of the children.

I have chosen to make teaching my career as well as a passion, I have always been good with children and I never thought anything of it. After starting college on a business path I was going to school and just feeling miserable. A friend of mine had to run and errand one day and asked me to watch his daughter and it was while I was watching his daughter, and playing, I said to myself "I like this so much better than business management". That very next day I changed my major and haven't looked back. I love to see the children laughing and smiling each day because they love being in school and learning. This is very important to me, no matter how big or small the building you work in the kids should be happy. While completing my Associate's Degree there were multiple internships and observation hours required, but I recently read a quote online that summed up my experience with internship and observation hours, it stated " If you love what you do, you wont spend a day at work." - Author Unknown
