It is with much enthusiasm and warmth that I welcome you to my space on the E.P. Clarke web site.  I love my children Jeff, Ashley, and Carley, chocolate, books, writing, art and all of the wonderful children of the St. Joseph Public School District that I have been privileged to teach since 1987.  I have a Master's Degree in Elementary Education and have been published in "Family Circle Magazine"!  I have taught remedial reading, second grade, kindergarten, art, and for the last 14 years third grade. 

My goal is to find the inner strength of every child and use that to help them believe that they can attain any goal they set their sights on.

I look forward to an open productive relationship with each and every student and their family.  Getting to know each other personally can give us the insight to solve any problem that may come our way, therefore forging a positive path for huge learning experiences.
