I do not coach sports, but I supervise art during the 2:00 activities .

Getting to know the kids and seeing how much they can learn in one year.
Do you have a favorite quote? If so what?
“Ain’t is not a word,” is one of my favorites and I say it a lot to the students because many students say “ain’t.” I also like a quote by Walt Disney, “Laughter is timeless. Imagination has no age. And dreams are forever.”
