Welcome to Ms. Bower's Home page!

Welcome!

Thank you so much for visiting my website. This is a great destination to find the class syllabus, Check-Your-Understanding Questions & Assessment Calendar, some additional resources, and a little bit about me. If there is anything you want me to add for your convenience as a student or guardian, let me know! You can always reach me at sarah_bower@sdst.org.

About me

I grew up a few towns over in Lansdale, PA and graduated from North Penn High School in 2017. While attending North Penn, you could always find me in the theater department and choral ensembles. My nights were frequently spent as a student at School of Rock Fort Washington where I played bass guitar, keyboards, and sang for eight years.

I graduated from Temple University in 2021, where I earned degrees in Secondary Education and Mathematics. When I wasn't in classes, I served as an Americorps Member for Jumpstart Philadelphia for three years and participated as a Magic Maker and Finance Chair for A Moment of Magic Temple University for two years. While in college, I worked as a music instructor at School of Rock Fort Washington for three years and as a sales associate at Plato's Closet Hatfield for five years.

I started working at Springfield Township Middle School as a sixth grade math teacher in 2021. I believe in teaching my students concepts until they have a thorough understanding and building autonomy to mold independent learners. I am also the Assistant Drama Director for STMS starting in the 2022 school year.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing and listening to music, attending theatre productions, spending time with my family and friends, shopping, and playing with my dog, Lucy.
