All About Travel - New Ideas, Great Places Around The World!: 14 Breathtaking Castles - A Must See!
I am a wife and mother of two wonderful daughters (and two wonderful sons-in-law), grandmother to one (so far) delightful granddaughter. My husband and I were high school sweethearts who have been together for 42 years, married for 37 years. Our daughters are 36 and 33 years old. Our granddaughter turns three on March 6, 2008.
I have been the "American Mama" to three exchange students from Italy.
I have been actively involved in Montessori education since September, 1974 when my first child started Montessori Primary. I became a credentialled Montessori teacher (early childhood level) in 1980. I am trained in Elementary I & II but didn't finish crossing t's and dotting i's to become credentialled on those levels because I was too busy running my school and building a new school facility and I have incredible Elementary teachers on staff who are far better teachers than I. I opened my first school in 1984. My current school, Sunset Hills Montessori School, was opened in 1994. We enroll toddlers through grade 8 and have a current enrollment of 200. I recently had children in my school whose mother I taught. I am now working with a second generation of students.
