I Love my job!!!!! This is my 13th year as Director of Flagstaff Junior Academy and have thoroughly enjoyed being an integral part of its growth and evolution. FJA is at a beautiful place right now with incredible teachers, supportive parents, and the absolute BEST students. We have a school community that is unsurpassed...a very caring and close-knit family. My career started 34 years ago as a third grade teacher in Medford, Mass., a suburb of Boston. Since that time I have taught 3rd - 7th grades, and was an administrator in the Deer Valley School District for twenty years. One of the highpoints of my career was being selected the first Teacher of the Year in 1996. I have served on numerous Boards throughout the years, but consider my seat on the Arizona Charter Schools Association for seven years to be one of the most productive and effective. Having made the move from the public school system to a charter school nine years ago, I have acquired a multitude of knowledge about this movement. It's all about Choice, Creativity, and Curricular Focus. I have always been very proud of the impact I have made on children's lives and the fact that I know I made a difference. |

I have been the Business Manager / Technology Sais Coordinator for FJA since moving to Flagstaff in 1997. I feel very fortunate to be a part of the FJA Team. Prior to coming to Flagstaff I was employed by the Needles Unified School District in California for several years. I have two grown children, David and Shelley. David lives in Boulder, Colorado and is a graphic designer. Shelley lives in Eureka, California. and is employed at St. Joseph's Hospital as a Histologist. I am the PROUD grandma of Emmett and Baby Brian. I have helped Michael, ( my other half) raise his three children, Matt, Anthony and Amanda, two of which attended FJA since first grade. I am very thankful for our family! I enjoy the outdoors. Happiest when I am out on the lake or on the river, basking in the sun with a fishing pole in my hand. Not necessarily a fish on the end of the hook:) I especially enjoy our family time at the lake and an occasional barbeque on the back porch. |
