Box Tops for Education

2010-08-17T12:19:00.001-05:00

Our school collects Box Tops to earn money for school activities and supplies. For every Box Top, General Mills will donate 10 cents. If you would like to learn more about the Box Top Fundraiser go to the Box Top Website.

All you need to do is clip and send them to school. Your teacher has a collection box in their room. The Box Tops will then me calculated by the Box Tops Coordinator. That's me! At the end of every month, I will update the Box Tops Challenge bulletin board to let everyone know who is in the lead. The grade level with the most at the end of the year will receive a free pizza party. Good luck and keep clipping!

About Me

2009-10-14T14:24:00.013-05:00

I was born in Vietnam and moved to America at the age of four. I grew up speaking Vietnamese, and when I started school, I was in ESL. English became my second language, and I studied Spanish in high school and college.

I went to Baylor University for two years, but graduated from the University of Texas in Austin. HOOK 'EM HORNS! I taught 3rd grade for seven years, and this will be my fourth year as an ESL Instructional Facilitator and Math Coach.

When I am not teaching, I enjoy: traveling, taking pictures, making scrapbooks, hanging out with friends, spending time with my family, or watching hockey. One of my favorite hobbies is photography. I have my own baby photography business called LOVE photography.

I am a huge Dallas Stars fan and a bigger Mike Modano fan (even if he no longer plays for the Stars)!

I am married and have two beautiful boys named Paxon and Lathan. We also have a puppy named Jack.
