Welcome to Ms. Durham's ELA Class!
About Ms. Durham
Hello!
It's me, hi, I'm the teacher it's me! (And yes, I will be playing Taylor Swift in my classroom this year 🎵)
My name is Justine Durham and I am a 7th Grade English teacher at Mooresville Middle School. This will be my third year at MMS and I love being apart of the Red Imp family! I am very involved at the school, helping with the WEB program, The History Club and coach 8th grade girl's basketball and track at MMS. I previously taught 7th grade ELA for five years in New Jersey before moving to North Carolina. I am a passionate teacher that values collaboration, creativity and laughter in my classroom each day. I love to get students moving and collaborating during my lessons to make English class as engaging and interactive as possible. I also strive to create a safe and welcoming environment for all students. I hope to share my enthusiasm and love for reading and writing with you this school year! 😀 📚
I graduated from Rider University ( a small college in New Jersey) in 2015 with my Bachelor's degree in Secondary Education and English with a minor in Special Education.
I am so excited to help my students grow and learn this school year! 🍎
