Welcome! Forest Trail is a great place to learn and play! I have taught kindergarten, first, second grades and a "Looping Class." I have taught in the Eanes district for over twenty years. One of the great things about being in one place for so long is that I am now teaching children whose parents went to Westlake High School (Go Chaps!) and had my husband, Coach Hurst as a coach/teacher! I have two lovely daughters, Hillary is a senior at WHS and Abigail is in 7th grade at Westridge Middle School. In addition to two daughters, we also have: cat-Cricket and a chihuahua-Jaime. My teaching philosophy is simple, Life is a Journey & so is second grade! I want my second graders to be challenged, have fun, learn to take risks, make good choices & lifelong friends. In our society today everything is fast and furious, I think it's ok to stop and smell the roses!
In a completely rational society, the best of us would aspire to be teachers and the rest of us would have to settle for something less, because passing civilization along from one generation to the next ought to be the highest honor and the highest responsibility anyone could have. -- Lee Iacocca | |
