I am an enthusiastic middle school teacher who has just completed my 25th year in the classroom. My first 21 years were spent in Battle Creek Public Schools where I became aware of the benefits of infusing Service Learning into my everyday teaching practice. This became the bridge that helped my students realize that there are real-life connections to their learning. I currently teach at Legg Middle School in Coldwater. At LMS, I have developed an elective class for my 6th grade students where they learn the Service Learning process and create their own projects to give to their community. Teaching my students to be difference makers is my passion!
