Yucca Middle School

I have always been interested in the science behind why the world works. I love that I am able to share my passion with my students and teach them how to spark their own curiosity in science. I am honored to be a part of the Noyce Master Teacher Fellowship. I strive to incorporate a strong foundation of learning and internal benefit of science as well as give my students the tools they need to be successful as they pursue their own educational goals. Education has changed within the last 28 years of my teaching career. Every year comes new strategies and classroom techniques to engage students and as an ecosystem, I look forward to bringing in new classroom ideas, strategies that will set my own experience above the rest. I am driven to have an engaged classroom with new and exciting strategies that make my students want to learn more. I do not shy away from a challenge and look forward to building on my 28 years with this amazing program. I look forward to meeting new colleagues and building those relationships across the STEM learning ecosystem.
