Jenni has two children who deaf attend CSDR, Jacob in 2nd grade and Hannah in PreK.

Jenni has worked at CSDR for seven years in the Early Childhood Education Department as a Preschool and Kindergarten teacher. She has been working in the Parent Infant Program for the past three years. She loves the ECE department. Jenni says, " I CANNOT imagine working elsewhere but with the PIPers!"

Jenni's favorite part of the day is the "mingling" amongst the students. It is the time they show their true selves and we can join their activities. Jenni also loves the "bye bye" circle time. She knows they love this time and are excited to sing different songs. She says, "It is so cute to see their little hands signing! Too precious."

Jenni thinks there are countless moments when the is funny as well as touching. She thinks it so cute to see the PIPers trying to "copy" how the adults talk, not knowing that are actually paying attention or pick up our signs.
