Hello and welcome to Perdew! I am so excited to be in the role of Student Success Coach this year! Here is a little information about me:
This is my 26th year in education, all in the Etiwanda School District. I began my career at East Heritage Elementary and then came to Perdew the year that we opened. I have spent all of my teaching years in the primary grades, Kindergarten, 1st grade, and 2nd grade. I have been a TK-1st grade instructional coach for the past two years. I am now taking on the role of Student Success Coach here at Perdew!
I grew up in Colorado and attended college at Colorado College in Colorado Springs and then moved out to California after college. I received my Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Chapman University a few years later.
I am married to my high school sweetheart and have two wonderful kids. My daughter is going into her third year at UC Irvine majoring in Biology and my son is a senior at Rancho High School.
I am so happy to help Perdew this year in my new role and look forward to a great school year!
