My teaching career began at Magnet Cove Elementary in 1991 when I was hired as a special education aide.  The following year I was hired as 5th and 6th grade social studies teacher.  After two years in that position, I moved to 3rd grade.  Nine years later, I became the elementary math intervention teacher and worked with students in grades K-6.  In 2009, I was hired as the elementary counselor where I hope to stay until I retire!

I am married to Jim Whisenhunt and we have 3 children and 8 grandchildren.  Our 3 children are graduates of MC.  Four of the grandchildren live in Colorado. Three live close by and are attending school at Magnet Cove.  

 We have 3 granddogs –a wild and crazy Boston terrier named Archie, a huge pyredoodle named Elvis and a little Rat Terrier named Winter.

I have been working at Magnet Cove Elementary School since 1991 and still love being here everyday.  When I am not at school, I like spending time with my family and enjoy camping with them whenever I can.
