Mrs.Kubica comes to school everyday prepared and ready to work with students, she is a resource for many, and is a positive addition for our school community.

What is your favorite subject that you teach at Central Valley Academy?

I love all of them because they are new and exciting. The variety allows me to do different things and keeps my day exciting. 

How is it different teaching high schoolers compared to teaching elementary students?

It is very different. High schoolers are more independent. I thought I would miss teaching elementary school, but I honestly don't. I can teach at a higher content level, so it is more of an intellectual kind of day. It's also less physically demanding, and that is refreshing to me.
