I love my job! My students want to do well, but don't always believe that they can. We have about 300+ students at our K-8 school. I teach 7th and 8th grades. Our rural town is in the foothills. Much of our economy left years ago when the mines failed. There aren't many opportunities for students when they graduate here locally. Few students have positive views for their futures. Many students are looking for ways to grow beyond our community. I want to help them find as many opportunities for their future success as possible. I want to be able to share experiences from other young people through literature.
