About Me

I am very excited to be teaching at Explorer again this year. I am a PV Schools and Explorer alumni. I attended Desert Trails, Explorer, and Pinnacle. I graduated from NAU summa cum laude from the College of Education. After college, I started teaching in the district and I have also taught at Echo Mountain, Grayhawk, and Desert Trails. My passion for technology and love for this community is what has brought me to Explorer. Additionally, I have a Masters degree in Curriculum and Instruction Technology from GCU and I am a Tynker Blue Ribbon Educator.

During the semester, I will do everything I can to make this a fun and successful learning experience for all students. By creating a classroom where students are engaged and having fun, I hope to instill the love of learning and passion for solving problems. I have high, yet attainable expectations for all students and with parent help and support we will help them to become responsible and productive young adults. Communication between school and home is important. I will do my best to keep you informed but if you ever have any questions please email me ctenney@pvschools.net.
