This course engages students in relevant problems and prepares them for higher education and the workplace.
Students will be able to:
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.

About Me
I am excited to begin year 33 teaching high school math part-time. I retired this past year, but I was not ready to completely give up teaching. So, I am back for 1st and 2nd block only. Becoming an educator was easy for me because I grew up with my mom teaching 3rd grade for 38 years. I am excited to see my seniors complete their last year of high school and look forward to seeing them graduate.
I am married to Brad Bixler, and we have two children, Jackson and Laurel. Jackson graduated in May 2023 from Georgia Southern University and Laurel is beginning her junior year at University of South Carolina. I am excited to watch her cheer this Fall - GO GAMECOCKS!!
