Hi Panda Family,

I am looking forward to a great (although a little different) school year.  I love teaching second grade and second graders!  It's such a great age and I am privileged to be a part of your child's educational journey.  I have been a proud Panda teacher for several years and my family is happy to be a part of the Winchester community.  My husband, Rick, also works for WPS.  We have 3 grown children; that is so hard to believe!   Our oldest, Ben,  plans to attend UVA Law School, but has deferred for a year hoping that he can go in person next year.  Our twins, Caroline and Adam, will be seniors at Virginia Commonwealth University and Shepherd University.  They both plan to go to graduate school following their graduation.  So as empty nesters, a lot of love and devotion is given to our two pugs, Bruno and Lucy.  The students will  hear a lot about all of them this year!  I plan on getting to know the students just as well.
