| I love to teach! I can't think of anything better than being with children! This is my sixth year at Brookman Elementary School and I have cherished every minute of it! I have been in the Clark County School District much longer since I grew up in Las Vegas! I graduated Valedictorian at Chaparral High School, received a Bachelor of Science from Brigham Young University, and a Masters of Education from U.N.L.V. When I'm not at school, I am chasing and cleaning up after my enthusiastic 1-year old...and sometimes, my husband too! :) I enjoy reading, movies, theater, being outdoors, traveling, and spending time with my family. I look forward to another wonderful year with the teachers, parents, and students at Brookman! |

| It is a pleasure to be working at Brookman Elementary. I began here last year and was made to feel at home from the moment I walked through the doors. I arrived at Clark County School District in November of 2010. I was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and moved from Pittsburgh where I substituted for almost 3 years after graduating from Penn State University. After substituting grew old, I decided to move to Las Vegas where a position was open and I taught 3rd grade for the remainder of that year. After 3rd grade I moved to Brookman for a 4th grade position. This is my second year with 4th grade and I’m happy to be back again. | |

| Hello parents and families! I am thrilled to be teaching at Brookman Elementary School and I am looking forward to a very successful year! I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Child and Adolescent Development and completed the requirements for my teaching credential at California State University, Fullerton. I have spent the past 6 years teaching 3rd, 5th and 6th Grade and I am so excited to be teaching 4th Grade this year at Brookman! Becoming a teacher was not only a job quest; it was my lifelong dream. I was inspired to teach at a very young age by one of my own teachers and I hope to instill a lifelong love for learning in your child! When I am not teaching, I really enjoy cooking, traveling and spending time with my family. This will be an exciting year, filled with many new adventures! | |

| Hello families. I am so excited to be teaching here at Brookman! I am looking forward to a wonderful year! I just moved to Nevada from Pennsylvania where I attended to Shippensburg University. I majored in Elementary Education with an Early Childhood minor. I am very excited to be teaching fourth grade because I was in fourth grade when I fell in love with learning. My fourth grade teacher was by far my favorite teacher and I hope to inspire and challenge my students as much as I was inspired. When I am not at school, I love to be outdoors. I especially enjoy camping and hiking. I also enjoy spending time with my family and friends and taking pictures of everything. | |
