A Little About Me

This year, I am starting my seventh year at Fairmont SD 89.  In those seven years, I have held a range of positions.  I have been a 5th grade teacher, middle school math teacher, Math Specialist, Dean of Students, Assistant Principal, and this year I have the honor of being Principal.  

I completed my Bachelors degree in education from Eastern Illinois University in 1995.  Since then I have completed three masters degrees.  

As an educator, I believe that there is a strong connection between home and school. We are all responsible for each child's education.   

Attendance

For each day that a student is not in school they are not learning.  Attendance is critical to your child's success in school.  Fairmont SD 89 is required to follow Illinois School Code when it comes to compulsory attendance laws.  If your child is going to be absent from school, parents must call the school office to report the absence.

Discipline

Please see the Parent/Student handbook for more information on student discipline.
