Welcome to Valley Springs!
I teach 7th grade science. I also serve as a team lead and am currently serving as the Process Manager of our SIT team. I also help out with the Spring Musical by leading the Crew Team and making costumes. I have worked here since 2019 and I absolutely love it!
I started my teaching career in music education. While teaching music, I found that I really enjoyed working with students in math, which led me to become certified in middle grades math in 2008. I have now moved into Science! My passion for teaching lies with middle school age students, and I love that I've been able to explore so many different subjects with them. My style of teaching is all about discovery and learning through process, which lends itself well to the science curriculum.
All resources for students in my class can be found in my Google Classroom.
