It is about helping students grow academically, socially, and emotionally so they can navigate the challenges of the world with confidence and resilience.

I am passionate about baseball and enjoy supporting my son in his athletic endeavors. It’s a great way to connect and be a part of the community. Additionally, you may see me crocheting as I watch the game. If you see me at the baseball field, please feel free to come by to say hello or even chat about the game or something else on your mind.”
