My name is Tonya Clark. My husband, John and I live in Talking Rock. I have been teaching for 14 years in Pickens County and have loved every moment! I feel very blessed to continue my career as a part of the dynamic 5th grade team at Jasper Middle School! I will begin my 15th year teaching 5th grade Math. I hope to help your children develop a love for Math and a desire to learn. My goal is to inspire my students to reach for the stars and provide them with the tools that they will need to succeed!
