I have been teaching for 20 years. I started my teaching career in Broward County. After 13 years, I moved closer to home. I then worked for a Charter School for 6 years, in Palm Beach County. This is currently my first year at S.D. Spady. I love working here! It is not just a job, it is a family! The Montessori magnet is an incredible program for the Pre-K 3, Pre-K 4, and Kindergarten students in my classroom. The students are not just learning every day, they are happy and excited to come to school! Come check out how S.D. Spady is not just an amazing place to teach, but also an extraordinary place to learn!
