Dear Families,

Breckinridge-Franklin Elementary School (BFES) is a fantastic place, and I am excited to be a leader here.  I taught fourth grade at BFES for five and a half years! I have worked for JCPS for more than ten years, serving as a classroom teacher in the third and fourth grades, a magnet coordinator, and an assistant principal.

We are honored to work with your child this year. We know that his or her time here will be exciting and rewarding. Our goal is to help your child be successful by offering positive learning experiences designed to motivate and guide him or her to achieve his or her maximum potential. We extend our hand in partnership, knowing that your child will achieve his or her greatest results if we work together. We encourage you to actively participate in the school's programs and activities. Working together, we can make a significant, positive difference in the lives of our students!

I look forward to working with each of you throughout the year. I invite you to contact me anytime if you have a question or concern. Thank you for all that you do for your child!
