    This is my 21st year with Cattaraugus-Little Valley
     and my 9th year teaching first grade. 
    My first year at Little Valley I taught multi-age which was a combined Kindergarten/First grade. 
    My second year I taught Early Intervention at both Little Valley and Cattaraugus
    and then I taught first grade for the next 5 years, then four years teaching Kindergarten, then I looped from Kindergarten to first grade and  then for seven years,  I went back in Kindergarten.
    I look forward to working with you and your children.
