DeSoto Parish School Board

I have been teaching in DeSoto Parish for 31 years because I like making a difference in my own community. I have been blessed to touch countless students' lives over the years which makes me feel like I am fulfilling my purpose on this earth.

I teach in DeSoto because 1) the pay is great and 2) the ongoing opportunities to develop and hone my teaching practice alongside experienced mentors. I've always felt like we (students, teachers, and administrators) are all in this together, no matter how choppy the waters may become

When I think of DeSoto Parish, I think of greatness. Teaching in this parish lets me know that I am a small part of something much bigger. Something that is always waiting in the wings to grasp on to the latest innovations in teaching and learning.
