I have taught English since 1996. I started teaching at Chesterton Middle School in 2007, and just finished the 2023 school year. I’m looking forward to one more year in our beloved building, before we move to our new school locations.❤️

Yesterday the CMS English department took 70 students to the Illinois Holocaust Museum. It was a solemn and enriching experience. Our students were complimented on their behavior. ...Feeling blessed. Thank you to all of our volunteers who escorted us! #Take a stand.
