Dear Parents,
I know that your child is your most precious gift, and I am humbled and blessed each time one of you entrusts him or her to me and our school. As the Director of COS Academy, I feel the great responsibility to partner with you to ensure that your child is loved and nurtured under our care. I promise to love your child every day, to help them develop a love for learning, to foster their curiosity, to help them gain a better understanding of themselves and the world around them, and to prepare them to be successful in their future education. Most importantly, I promise to share the love of Jesus with them as they play, learn and grow. I graduated from Martin Luther College in New Ulm, MN in 2011 with a degree in Early Childhood Education. I taught in a combined preschool/kindergarten class for 3 years in Wisconsin before moving to Central Florida to teach 3rd grade for 5 years. I started serving as director at Christ Our Savior in 2019. I enjoy walking my dogs, playing the piano, movie trivia, and home improvements. |
