• My classroom is filled with ladybugs because, growing up, my nickname was Gaylebug.  

    I believe all children can learn successfully with the right balance of love, nurturing, and challenge.  

    I hold my students to high expectations in all areas and I am a firm believer in using manners, no matter the situation.  

    I adore children and the way their minds work in different ways.  I love to watch children explore and discover new things.
