My name is Angela Critchfield.  I have lived in Coeur d' Alene  since 1993.  I have one son who attends The University of Idaho.  He is majoring in Education.  I have been a Falcon for twenty years. My teaching experience is 24 years.  I believe listening is perhaps the most valuable interpersonal skill a teacher can possess.  A teacher who listens to students and parents, will not only be able to achieve good rapport, but will be a more effective communicator.
