Meet Mrs. Mitchell

Hi everyone! I am Mrs. Mitchell and I am so excited to be your Health Teacher for Grades 6, 7 and 8. I look forward to working with you this year as we continue the journey of taking care of your wellness. This year begins my 15th year of teaching at AMS and my goal is for you to take the skills we learn in our class and apply them to your life. From leaning how to deep breathe, resolve conflict, stand up to peer pressure, build healthy relationships and begin to grow as a young person , I am hoping we have a fun time getting to know each other too.

A little bit about me: I have been teaching for over 25 years and never cease to be amazed at what my students teach me!! I also am the Peer Mediation Coordinator, which means I run a program that helps students struggling with a conflict find ways to resolve their problem with the help of our own AMS peer mediators. I am also part of the Amesbury Wellness Committee which is a community based group working to keep Amesbury healthy and fit.

I like to spend my free time reading, cooking for my family and friends and spending time outdoors no matter the season. Hiking, walking, gardening, swimming , snowshoeing and ice skating are a few of my favorites ways to stay healthy!
