My first teaching job

I taught one year at Hinsdale South High School and coached cross country, track, and girl’s basketball before coming back to BHS. While at ISU for my undergraduate work, I coached the BJHS Basketball Team and the BJHS Cross Country Team. I also assisted with the BHS Track Team

Why I LOVE Being A Purple Raider: I am very proud to be a “Purple Raider” and that is the reason I have been here since 1982!  The diverse makeup & quality of our student body, the opportunities that we offer our students, the quality and dedication of our staff & administration, the support of our parents, the support of our Board of Education and Dr. Nielsen, and the Raider spirit that lives in our building on a daily basis are all reasons why I bleed Purple & Gold!
