Hello Monsoon students and families! My name is Nicole Bauer and I will be your integrated science teacher this year. This year is my 13th year in education. I have taught middle school science in Dysart for the past 4 years after moving from Ohio in 2015. I am excited to start this new chapter in my career as I venture into high school teaching. I hold a bachelor's degree from Ohio Wesleyan University in Education with an emphasis in science. For the past two years, I have been honored to be a member of the coaching staff for the girls basketball team at Valley and when I am not teaching I can usually be found in the gym. I also enjoy spending time with my husband and two sons. I'm a true Ohio State football fan and enjoy playing fantasy football in the fall. I am looking forward to this year as we discover and explore science together!
