My name is Kristi Van Horn. This is my 19th year teaching, and it will be my first full year at PHMS.  I have always taught at the middle school level, mostly Language Arts classes, but I am also licensed in Social Studies.  I love teaching because each day is something new.  It is never boring-especially with middle school kids!  I have two amazing daughters here at PH, one in 6th grade and one in 3rd grade.  We moved to Orland this past summer after living in Fort Wayne for our whole lives. My educational goals this year are to teach students with intention, hold students to high standards, develop strong relationships and communicate effectively.  Please always feel free to contact me about any questions or concerns-email and ParentSquare are the quickest ways to reach me.
