Hi! My name is Olivia Parker and I am the Theatre Teacher, Director, and Thespian Troupe Sponsor at San Bernardino High School
I have been teaching at SBHS for 15 years now and I have been running the theatrical program (both onstage and backstage) for 14 of those years.
I was a theatre student all 4 years of high school and graduated as a member of the International Thespian Society: a worldwide academic honor society for theatrical students. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre from the University of California, Santa Cruz where my main foci included Dance, Directing, and Technical Theatre. Concurrently while in both high school and college, I taught and directed at Pomona College in Claremont, California through a children's theatre program called The Claremont School of Theatre Arts (CSTA), a program I was involved in for 20 years.
In 2009, I went back to school to get my Masters Degree in Education as well as my teaching credential from Claremont Graduate University. It was then that I began working at SBHS as a math instructor. I was hired full time the following year to take on the theatre program and have worked to build the program into what it is today.
I currently sit on the California State Thespian board and will be your go-to for all state and international competitions and events!
I enjoy spending my limited free time with my friends, family, and my ANIMALS!!!! AHHHHHH! I have a mini farm that pretty much controls everything I am able to do, which is awesome because they're LIFE! My favorite things include playing board games, hiking, traveling/road tripping, binge watching shows (currently loving The Boys and Yellowjackets), experimental cooking, and tattoos (I'm in a competition with Shia LaBeouf to see who can get the most).
