Corrie Agnew came into teaching as a second career and after raising a family. After years of volunteering in the classrooms of her own three daughters, she realized that the classroom was where she was meant to be, and that teaching was the career she should have chosen, so she went back to college at Central Washington University to obtain her B.A. in Science and Mathematics Education. She worked in the Enumclaw School District, where she lives with her family, for a couple of years before she accepted a job teaching science at Cascade Middle School and knew that she had found the perfect school community for her.

Since joining Cascade, she has taught Green Team, 6th and 7th grade science and Accelerated Science; and the AVID Elective class to 7th and 8th grade scholars. Although she is still, always will be, a major science nerd, it is the AVID Elective that has her teacher’s heart because she believes our school is full of students who possess the desire to go to college and the willingness to work hard, and she wanted to make sure they all get the they all get the opportunity to be college and career ready that they deserve.
Corrie and her husband, Paul, who works at Boeing, still live in Enumclaw with their three goofy dogs. Although their daughters are grown and moved away, they enjoy going to visit them in their respective cities. Actually, they enjoy any kind of travel, especially if it involves palm trees, sandy beaches and sunshine! On fall weekends, they watch a lot of football, favoring the Seahawks and the Huskies! In the Spring, they cheer on UW softball!

In 2015, Marie transferred to Cascade Middle School in Auburn, WA to teach a 6th Grade ELA job share. This year, she returned to full-time teaching as a Title ELA and AVID Elective teacher. She is inspired to teach both reading and AVID because she sees them as foundational to putting students on the path toward accomplishing their dreams no matter what challenges they have or will face.
