Welcome to English!

Hello! My name is Alexis Harris. This is my fourth year teaching at ConVal, though I student taught here in 2016. I am a co-advisor for Student Council.

I attended Castleton University and received my bachelors in Communications: Mass Media. I then went to Keene State and received my teaching certificate as well as my masters in Curriculum and Instruction. I previously taught at Bellows Falls Middle School in Vermont for three years.

I believe in building positive rapport with students. I feel that when students have a good relationship with their teachers the lessons are more engaging and more learning takes place. I teach students that I can give them all the things they need to be successful, but they need to be responsible and do the work.

Outside of school, I enjoy hiking, kayaking, and crafting. I also enjoy visiting museums and learning all sorts of cool things! My husband and I live in Peterborough with our sons, Amalio and Beckett, our cat, Matilda, and our dog, Harper Lee.
