A Message from the Principal

Dear Parents,
I became principal at Linville Edom on July 1, 2004. I began my teaching career as a special education teacher in Augusta County. I moved to Harrisonburg City Schools in 1982 where I spent 9 years as a reading specialist, 2 years teaching second grade and 7 years teaching 3rd grade. In July of 2000 I became the assistant principal at Mountain View Elementary School. I came to Linville after spending two years as an assistant principal at J. Frank Hillyard Middle School. I love being with students of all ages and like to spend most of the school day in classrooms where the children are. I live in Bridgewater with my husband, three daughters and golden retriever. I enjoy reading, gardening, and working out with my morning friends. I am so excited to be the principal at Linville Edom. I enjoy being with children and love to watch them get excited about learning new ideas and concepts. I am completely committed to ensuring that each child is a successful learner. I look forward to working with parents and students here at Linville-Edom Elementary School.
Sincerely,
