I moved to Oregon in 1995 and received my Master's of Arts in Education from Oregon State University in 1999. I taught in Oregon for 11 years in kindergarten and first grade. This will be my first year teaching at Rowe School in Yarmouth.

The Portland Symphony Orchestra Visits WCS!

Some members of  Portland Symphony Orchestra's strings section visited us yesterday.  They performed The Legend of Abbie Burgess.  For more information, click the link:

We also read the book: "Keep the Lights Burning, Abbie" by Peter and Connie Roop.

Look for the flags we made for the performance in Family Folders.  Students made flags to represent different wind speeds.  A Small Craft Advisory Flag for winds up to 38 mph, a Gale Flag for winds 39-54 mph, a Storm Flag for winds 55-73 mph, and a Hurricane Flag for winds 74 mph and higher.
