Welcome to Science!!! My name is Katie McDaniel and I am so excited to learn along side you as we explore topics in Science!
This year begins my 15th year at West Middle School where I have taught both Science and Math to 6th - 8th graders. I previously taught Math, Science and Language Arts in Mattawan for 10 years and even had the opportunity to para-pro in my son's Kindergarten classroom! How lucky is that!?!
My husband, Jerry, and I have been married for 26 years and have two fantastic kids; McKenzie is 22, a recent grad from St. Mary's College (Go Belles!) and now an RN in the ER at Bronson! My son, Jack, is 21 and beginning his Senior year at Hope College (Go Dutch!) where he is studying to be a teacher. We also have two fur babies that we adore deeply: Buddy is an 10 year old Lab/Shepherd mix and Olive is a 5 year old Shepherd-Collie-Sheepdog mix. We think she looks more like a twinkie. :)
We love to do anything and everything outdoors: camping, boating, fishing, playing ball, watching ball and even reading is a fun outdoor activity! We absolutely LOVE our Tigers (good times and bad) and look forward to spending time together whenever we can!
