​Dear Kind Koalas (and Families) in Room 10, 
   I'm so glad to be your teacher this year. I've been a teacher for over thirty years, and this is my 14th year at Oster. Some of you have brothers or sisters who were in my class!

 I have a daughter and son who also went through Union School District. I now have a one year old grandson. On the weekends, my husband and I like to go to the beach or go hiking.  We also really enjoy watching or attending many Warriors, 49ers, and Giants games. 

I grew up in Campbell and attended SJSU to become a teacher. I am so grateful to be a teacher at Oster doing what I love to do. I truly enjoy my days with each and every one of you. 

                                             "If you can be anything... be kind,"

This is MY second grade picture! My teacher's
name was Mrs. Kinney. This was the year
I decided I would become a teacher when
I grew up.  I've never changed my mind!
