Hi, I'm Mrs. Gadd!

I have been teaching for 14 years and am fortunate to have spent all of those years at PRIDE Academy. My first two years teaching, I was an impact teacher and taught small groups to grades 1-8. Since then I have taught Jr. High, all subjects but most recently history and math.

I received my teaching credential and Masters from National University but also attended SDSU in my early years of college. I am a West Hills High School alumni and have lived in Santee for the past 25 years.

My husband and I stay busy raising our 3 young children who are ages 8, 6, and 3. We enjoy family days at the zoo, Disneyland, or even just walking our dog at the park. We love watching college sports and although I am a University of Kentucky fan at heart, I now also root for the University of Michigan since that is where my husband attended school.

I am so excited to be your teacher this year and can't wait to learn more about all of you!
