I am enjoying teaching my 8th year of 3 year old preschool at Atkins Elementary. I love to hang out with my dog and take walks. I grew up an Indianola Indian, but I am very thankful to have been adopted into the Bobcat family.

Norway had a poster contest in addition to the FFA-sponsored coloring contest. Here are the winners. Thank you to everyone who participated. #BeABobcat #APlaceToBelong
