Our public school located in Southwest Michigan. Most of my students are low income and minority, but I know that will not stop me nor them from reaching their expectations. My students teach me something nearly every day about the value of hard work and perseverance. I have taught in this city for nearly 25 years and I LOVE every minute of the time I get to spend with my students. They keep me young at heart and excited about our future!
