My First Post!

It is a little sad how excited I am to be posting my very first blog:) I thought it would be fitting for this post to give myself a full introduction, so here goes:

I graduated in 2009 from the University of Kentucky with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and am pursuing a Master's Degree with an Endorsement in Gifted and Talented Education from Georgetown College (to be completed May 2012). I grew up in Barren County (in south central Kentucky) but have enjoyed living in Lexington for the past seven years. My first year as a teacher was better than I could ever have imagined and I'm extremely excited about the coming school year! My teaching philosophy focuses on offering every student individualized instruction to better meet his/her unique needs so his/her fullest potential can be reached. It is my belief that every child can learn and is capable of remarkable accomplishments, as long as they are supported by family, school, and community. I cannot wait to work with each and every one of my students and parents for the coming year!

With that said, I look forward to using this blog as a great form of communication with my students and parents/guardians!
