Mrs. Manly graduated from Auburn University in 2013 with a degree in Secondary Chemistry Education. She held a long term sub position at Chelsea High School, which helped her first full time teaching position at Helena High School where she taught for 8 years! After that, Mrs. Manly moved to Hoover where this is her third year here. She absolutely loves it! It has been her dream to teach physics all day and she loves being able to do that along with teaching her students how the world works. She has also taught a variety of other science courses including biology, physical science, forensics, chemistry, and AP Physics I. 

“I absolutely love physics and love getting other students excited about it! It is no surprise that I'm a huge nerd, but I also love being outdoors and doing activities like running, hiking, and camping!

AP Physics C: Mechanics is the first semester of a college level engineering physics course. We learn about one and two dimensional motion, forces, circular and rotational motion, energy, work, momentum, and simple harmonic motion. This course teaches you how to solve problems with algebra and calculus. We do a lot of labs and have fun learning how the world works!”
