About Mrs. Cooke

Welcome! My name is Stephanie Cooke and I will be your language arts teacher this year! This is my 7th year at RMS and my 6th year teaching 7th grade ELA. 

I received my bachelor's degree in English from Peace College and my Middle School Language Arts Teaching License from North Carolina State University. (Go Pack!) I started out my education career as a 3rd-5th Grades Writing Teacher and Testing Coordinator at a charter school. Then, I taught 4th grade for three years before coming to middle school. 

I was born and raised in Wake Forest, where my parents still live. I also have a younger sister, Abby, who lives in Durham with her husband, Jackson and my niece, Annabelle. My husband, John, and I live in Raleigh with our 4 year old son, Grayson, our 1.5 year old daughter Lilley, and our dog Reid. 

I'm looking forward to another great year and am excited to get to know your and your students!
