My Philosophy


I believe it is important to create a community where all learners feel safe, respected and have a sense of belonging. It is important to focus equally on the social, emotional and academic needs of students. I strive to meet children where they're at by differentiating instruction, choosing developmentally appropriate activities and providing a balance between teacher-directed and self-directed learning. I value play, the arts, movement, creativity and laughter as important and meaningful parts of the learning process for children.

Contra Dance and Support for Japan

SCS Children to Children
             Family Contra dance
           to benefit tsunami victims
    Music by "The Irregulars"  (CVU/Waldorf students)

       Saturday, March 26
Shelburne Town Hall 
         5:30-7:30



In response to the March 11 earthquake that struck Sendai, Japan, Students Rebuild partnered with DoSomething.org, to ensure students worldwide have a way to support their Japanese peers.
Help Japan by making paper cranes. These simple yet powerful gestures will trigger a $200,000 donation from the Bezos Family Foundation - $2 for each crane received - to Architecture for Humanity's reconstruction efforts in Japan. Once we reach our goal of 100,000 submissions, the cranes will be woven into an art installation - a symbolic gift from students around the globe to Japanese youth.
