West Saint Paul, MN

My Role at BlueSky
Lead English Teacher and Reading Intervention Specialist. I’m also a Board member.

How I Came to BlueSky
I was looking for a job that would allow me the flexibility to take care of my two small children. BlueSky allows me to teach full time, but still be there for daycare pickup. I’ve enjoyed it so much, that I’ve stayed on, even though I don’t have to pick up from daycare anymore. Now I pick them up from their bus stop!

What Makes BlueSky Special to Me
BlueSky’s online setting allows students the freedom to approach school in a way that works for them in ways that traditional school simply can’t.

My Passions and Hobbies
I enjoy playing with my kids, board games, video games and community service.

My Most Memorable Experience at BlueSky
Years ago, Mrs. Parcheta had a chicken on her head during her graduation speech. I don’t think I’ll ever forget that.
