Subject Area(s): Elementary Education: Second Grade                                                                                          Home Town: Princeton,Ne.
Year you entered the teaching profession: 1988                                                                                               Degrees Held & Institution Received From:  Bachelor of Science from U.N.L. (Major:  Elementary Ed./Early Childhood/Human Development).  I worked for an insurance company for several years before deciding to complete my teaching degree. Two of my three children had due dates that fell during finals week when I attended college full-time!  That was certainly an invigorating time in my life to say the least!
Received Master's Degree in Curriculum & Instruction From Doane College:1994                                   .
Favorite thing about teaching: I really enjoy working with all the Norris families.  I love watching the students grow and change throughout the years. Seeing them graduate is such a thrill for me. (Yes... I usually get pretty teary throughout the ceremony because I am so proud of them- and I can't believe all those years passed by so quickly)
