I’m originally from Las Cruces, New Mexico but have been in Arizona for 27 years. I graduated from ASU with my Masters and Bachelors degrees. Go Sun Devils! This is my second year at Desert Meadows but i Have been in education for 18 years. I am married with two daughters and one of my daughters attends DM. I am thrilled to have your student in my class and I can’t wait for us to work together to make your student the best student possible.

Regular attendance is essential for academic success. Students should arrive at school ready to learn every day with their supplies from the supply list. Students are expected to be in the classroom before the tardy bell rings at 8:00 am. If students come to the classroom past that time they will be marked tardy.

 

I cannot wait for the school year to start and to start working with our students.
