This is my 16th year with Round Lake School District.  I am an 8th grade Science teacher and have a great passion for teaching students about Science.  I believe that hands on experiences are essential to the learning process and try to incorporate them in my classroom as often as possible.  It is very rewarding to see students enjoy Science class while discovering something new.  I am also one of the adult leaders for the Student Mentor WEB Leaders.  This group consists of approximately 70-8th graders that help the 6th graders with the transition to middle school as well as run a variety of activities for them throughout the school year.
