Hi Everyone!
My name is Mrs. Wenner and I am your 8-3 ELA teacher. I'm excited for the 2024-2025 academic year and being a part of the 8-3 Cardinals team. This is my 12th year teaching middle school. I just got married in May to my husband, Ben, have a dog named Doc, a cat named Mellow, and three birdies named Lego, Ellie, and Gimli. I love to read, go to cheer on the Durham Bulls, and travel.
I look forward to a marvelous year :)
