The 2010-2011 school year was my 16th teaching at Willard. Twelve of those years have been in Kindergarten. I received a Bachelors of Science in 1994 from Drury University, an Early Childhood Degree in 1996 from SMSU, and a Master’s Degree in 2000 from SMSU.
I graduated from Willard High School in 1984. My husband, Fred, and I met on the Willard junior high school bus and became best friends in 1979. We married December 1, 1984.
Our daughter, Ashley, is 26. She married Phillip on January 2, 2009. Our son, Kellyn, is 24. He brought Mary into our family in 2010. She officially became part of our family on February 4, 2012. Fred and I are expecting our first granddaughter, Makenzie, in May. We have close family ties and cherish our time together.
