Hello!

Welcome to a brand new new school year! I am so excited to be your child's teacher. I have been a K -2 teacher for many years with a great deal of experience in second grade. I graduated with my teaching degree from Eastern Michigan University. I have three minors in Science, Social Science, and English. I have a Master's Degree in Reading. I am a Reading Specialist. I love second grade the most of all the grades!! Second grade is a wonderful year, full of growth and changes. I can't wait to begin this journey with you and your child!

Just a little about me personally ...I am a happy wife to Mr. Merchant and we are the proud parents of our 4 grown children (Walt, David, Sarah, and Laura). Three of our four kids are married. We are so blessed to have lovely a son and daughters-in-law!  I also have 4 granddaughters who are the loves of my life! We sure have lots of fun with them! I love to travel, read, swim, and collect all things Disney. 

My most favorite thing of all to do is to teach! I am so excited to meet you all!
