Hello! My name is Barbara Quintasket although most of the kids call me "Grandma Q.". This is my fifth year at Nespelem Elementary, my dream job! I teach middle school Science and also lead the STEM Club. My science lab has a pet bearded dragon named Benny, two guinea pigs named Chicken Nugget and Ginger, an Eastern Musk Turtle, 5 goldfish named after the Kardashians, a leopard lizard named Lizzy, and 4 chatty Robobsky hamsters. Each class gave our turtle a different name, so he's a flexible little guy.
I live in Omak with my husband, Phillip. We have a houseful of pets which include our dog, cat, tortoise, and several kinds of lizards.
