I
helped establish the Minnesota Writing Project and have
served as Co-Director since 1990. For over thirty years,
I taught language arts at Burnsville High School, where
I was actively involved with the district's curriculum
work and staff development programs. I co-direct the composition
component of College of the Schools, an opportunity for
high school students to earn college credit from the University
of Minnesota. In addition, I am associated with the Best
Practice Network in Writing, a group of writing teachers
from across the state who encourage good instructional
practice in writing.
