Highlights for this year:

What would you like your students to take away from this year?

I would like to express the importance of good sportsmanship in our Physical Education program.  All students should feel comfortable participating in our P.E. activities, regardless of their ability level.  We should applaud our students who put forth their best effort.

Favorite Teaching Memory:

My favorite teaching  is memory is during our annual field day. Notre Dame invites special needs students from a nearby school to participate. It is heartwarming to see our students display such care and patience towards these special individuals.

How Do You Measure Success In Teaching?

Teaching success is measured through the students. I am truly  amazed watching a student master an activity after struggling and practicing for a specific event. It does not matter how great  or small the accomplishment  may be. It is that  the student learns hard work pays off in the end.
