2021-2022 School Year

Hello & WELCOME to First Grade!

I am delighted to be your child's teacher this year.  I absolutely love teaching first grade and look forward to the many adventures we will have this year.  First grade is a magical year, full of many new experiences and amazing growth.  Your child will grow leaps and bounds this year and I am honored that I get to be a part of that.

I have been teaching for a total of 19 years and this will be my 15th year teaching 1st grade. It is definitely my favorite age to teach!

My husband is also a teacher at Galileo and my kids have been students here.  My daughter is a Senior at Bishop Kelly and my son is a 9th grader, also at Bishop Kelly.  Both Mr. Aldinger and I were born and raised in Idaho and still have much of our family in the Gem State. 

In my free time I enjoy reading, baking, cross stitching, and spending time with my family and friends. 

Thank you for sharing your child with me this year! I look forward to partnering with you and making your child's first grade year the best it can be!
