Meet Ms. Macdonald
Welcome to the 2019-2020 school year! This is my seventh year teaching middle school. In addition to seventh grade Language Arts, I previously taught sixth and eighth grade Social Studies, Global Studies, and Language Arts courses. I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a B.A. in German and Anthropology, and East Carolina University with a Master of Arts in Middle Grades Education. I am excited to work with each one of you this school year and look forward to all that we will accomplish together.
