Mrs. Malkey

My name is Amanda Malkey. I am one of three Reading Specialists that provide Title I services at West Hills Intermediate School. This year is my 22nd year of teaching. I was a Reading Specialist in the Burrell School District for six years before coming to the Armstrong School District in 2004. I have had the pleasure of working in numerous elementary buildings in the district over the past fifteen years. I have been in my current position at West Hills Intermediate School since 2010.

Hi! I'm Heidi Peterson, and I'm new here at West Hills Intermediate. I have a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood/Special Education and a master's degree in Literacy.
