About the teacher:
Welcome to my 8th grade E/LA class! It is going to be a great year. This is my sixteenth year teaching and my seventh at RMA. I am a Bradenton native and graduated from USF-SM with both my B.S. and M.A. in English Education. My children both attend Rowlett Elementary (Third & Fifth Grade).About the teacher:
I consider myself a fan of most everything labeled geeky and love coffee in all its forms. I am a nature enthusiast—I enjoy hiking, keeping houseplants, and running aquariums. When I am not doing something active like running or fishing, I tend to have a book in my hand. Playing board games or video games with my family are among my most common pursuits. Some of my favorites times of year are football and basketball seasons (Go Bucs and Go Magic!).
