"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character- that is the goal of education."
-Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
I am honored to be a part of the 5th grade community at Bemis Elementary. I have such a passion for educating young minds and am looking forward to seeing students reach their full potential. There is something special that happens in a classroom when students reach their growth mindset and find it within themselves to see what they are truly capable of. Besides a teacher, I am a facilitator, an encourager, and a motivator. It will be a wonderful year in 5th grade as we all work together to reach some wonderful goals!
