 2021-2022 will be my fourth year of teaching but my first year teaching at Lakeview High School and it feels great to be a Bulldog again! After graduating from Lakeview I earned my bachelor’s degree in Integrated Science Education at Youngstown State University then I earned my Masters Degree in Environmental Science: Environmental Studies from Montclair State University in New Jersey. While in New Jersey I taught part time as an adjunct professor at Fairleigh Dickinson University and Kean University. After moving back to Ohio I taught Biology at Niles McKinley High School for three years. This year I will be teaching Physical Science, CCP Environmental Science, and CCP Physical Geology. I look forward to exploring the world around us with all of you!

Miss Jankovich

Hi! I am Miss Morgan Jankovich and I am so excited to be back in the Lakeview family, but as a teacher this time! Being a part of this amazing community my whole life has meant so much to me and I am so honored to be back. The reason I chose to become a science teacher was because science is an ever growing and ever evolving field. I chose to be a lifelong learner, and I feel that science gives me that opportunity. It excites me to find ways to help students become independent thinkers and problem solvers while mastering skills they learn through science that may spill over into other areas of their lives. It’s truly fascinating how every aspect of science plays a role in our lives, and I want to share my passion and knowledge with generations to follow. It is our job as teachers to encourage students to enter the STEAM field and shape their lives to be the next doctors, engineers, chemists, etc. 

I graduated from Kent State University with a bachelor's degree in Integrated Sciences with a concentration in Chemistry. In my free time, I love going to yoga classes, exercising, concerts, and traveling. I also have the cutest little kitty named Prada. 

I am so excited to share my love for science with you this year! Go Bulldogs!

Mr. Murphy

My name is Mr. Joshua Murphy, and I have been a science teacher at Lakeview High School since August of 2015. I started my career teaching freshman Physical Science until I began teaching Chemistry and College Credit Plus General Chemistry I (1515/L) in 2017. In 2019 we added College Credit Plus General Chemistry II (1516/L) to our science offering.

I am a graduate of Lakeview High School. I studied pre-medicine at YSU before switching to education in my fourth year of college. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a B.S. in Adolescent Education (Integrated Science grades 7-12) from Youngstown State University (YSU) in 2015. In 2017, I earned a M.S. in Chemistry Education, also from YSU.

I was a non-traditional student in college after working 6 years in masonry construction. I am a big fan of skilled trades, but going to college was one of the best decisions I have made. I love teaching in the high school because I get a chance to prepare adolescents for their future in academics and in life.
