I am currently in my fourth year of teaching in Flagler County.  Mrs. Fajardo and I have been team teaching for three years, allowing us to teach to our strengths.  I teach reading, science, and social studies, while she teaches writing and math.

I am originally from New Hampshire, but I have lived in Florida for most of my life.  I moved to the Florida Keys in fourth grade and stayed until 2000 when I graduated from Key West High School.

From there, I went to Flagler College in St. Augustine.  I graduated in April, 2004 with a B.A. in Elementary Education and an ESOL Endorsement.

Since graduating from Flagler, I have also earned my Reading and Gifted Endorsements. 

I love to read and play video games in my spare time.  I also draw and paint as much as I can.  I have completed several murals for my friends' houses and hope to complete my mural here at school as soon as it cools off.

 In addition to my murals, I have recently begun making smaller paintings for my friends.  Each one has their initials integrated into the painting.

Look for the initials JMH in this one!
