My Job 

I work with children who have learning and behavior disorders.   My students have reading, writing and math difficulties. Others have autism, attention deficit disorder, behavior disorders and variety of other challenges to their learning. This year I work with fourth grade.  Most of my day is in Mrs. Gani’s classroom.  This is our eleventh year together.  I have been teaching for fourteen years.  All of those years have been at New Highland.  I have taught in all grade levels either in a collaborative setting with the regular education teacher or in a resource room.
