About Me
Hey there! My name is Briana Maray, and I am so excited to be starting my fourth year teaching at Ridgeview Middle School. I am a graduate of Texas Woman's University with a BS in History and a minor in Education. I am certified in History 7-12, ELAR/SS 4-8 & ESL Supplemental.
I love teaching, making people smile, and finding humor in everyday life. I have worn many hats over the years, but the ones I am most proud to have worn are those of a mom, a U.S. Army veteran, a college graduate, and a teacher.
When not at school, I love spending time with my favorite people, my boys, Waylon and Eli, and our dog, Gussy. I am also a member of a non-profit organization that works to improve the lives of my fellow veterans. Overall, in my professional and personal life, I truly love what I do and enjoy sharing it with the people around me.
Likes: 90’s music, road trips, Dr Pepper
Dislikes: Brussels sprouts, dirty floors, bad hair days
The way to my teacher heart: Peanut M&M's & Aloha Bars :)
