About the store
We have a total of twenty-six years between the two of us.
Our teaching record is quite diverse. Believe it or not, I actually began as a physical education teacher. While teaching P.E. I began to realize that I enjoyed the health portion of the curriculum far more than my time spent on the hardwood. So, I went back to school for special education and never looked back. I have been teaching in an LRC setting for the past 7 years and I've loved every minute of it.
