Meet the Administration 

  • Educating our future generation of leaders is my passion, and I am thrilled to serve the students, families, and staff of Lake Panasoffkee Elementary School.

    I graduated from Southern Illinois University with my Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorate degrees.  I have worked in PK-5 schools for over twenty years, and I still learn something new every day! 

    I grew up and began my career in education in southern Illinois.  My family moved to Florida in 2016.  Since moving here, we have enjoyed the beauties of Florida and have taken many weekend trips to the beach.  We also enjoy spending time with my grandparents, who live nearby.  My oldest daughter, Abby, is an education major at Santa Fe College, and my youngest daughter, Baylie, is working toward a nursing degree at the College of Central Florida.

    "Education is the foundation of all we do in life. It shapes who we are and what we aspire to be." - Julie Payette

    I am honored to help build this foundation for our Ospreys, and I look forward to a fantastic year!
