About
Hi, my name is Sandy Sullivan. I have been teaching at John R Beatty for 18 years and been teaching for over 27 years altogether! Man time flies.
I grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers. And then went to college in Boston and got my teaching degree from Boston University. I taught in Boston for 10 years before I moved to Las Vegas in 2001. I received my Master's Degree in 2010 with a focus on Administration. I have had the opportunity to worked with students of all ages but have settled on students ages 9 to 11 as it is such a pivotal time between elementary and middle school. It's an important time in a young student's life, going from being looked at as a child to a young adult and often when a student is struggling with school subjects, it can be a time where they begin to give up. That is why I feel so strongly about catching students at this time and really offering them the support they need but also hope that things will get better. It is just going to take time and work. I am also the proud mom of 13 year old twin boys and two fuzzy hound dogs. |
