Jennifer graduated from University of Houston-Victoria in 1999 with a BSIDS in Elementary Education minoring in Reading and History. She later received her early childhood endorsement in the state of Utah. She taught Third Grade at Mesa Day School on the Hopi Indian reservation. They moved to Utah in 2007. She has been teaching kindergarten for the last 5 years in the Provo and Alpine School Districts. She became acquainted with American Heritage School by watching the "Hearts and Minds" video on the website. "The spirit was so strong as I watched the video that I also knew I wanted to be a part of the school one day." She is excited for the opportunity to be helping the 5th grade teachers this year.
