La Crete,AB

Summary

I was born and raised in La Crete and am very familiar with the community. As a teenager I was very involved in my youth group and and community. I was always active in High school through sports and activity planning. I’ve always known I’d work with youth. In 1995 my husband and I were youth leaders for several years, walking with and mentoring many youth. Even when starting my family I remained connected with many of the youth. In my years as an Educational Assistant, my strength has been working with junior and senior high. My time at LCPS was the most amazing. I connected with so many students and still remain connected. I also have loved my new connections with the young people at Fort Public/St. Mary’s.
