Bonjour! Je m'appelle Madame Trappett. I teach French at Cleveland High School. I am starting my 22nd year teaching. I received my BA in English and French and MA in British and American Literature at Texas Tech University and I finished my teaching certificate at UNM. I love French and have a passion for teaching the language I fell in love with when I started taking it in high school! I continued my French interest during my undergraduate studies and decided I should probably study abroad once I declared my double major. I studied French at the Sorbonne in Paris, France for a year. I am a native New Mexican and decided to come back to our beautiful Land of Enchantment after I graduated from Texas Tech. I started my teaching career here in Rio Rancho and loved it so much I have remained all these years. I am a National Board Certified Teacher in French and I am also the World Language Instructional Leader.
