About the Teacher


Katy Carmincke - English 1/Pre-AP English 1

I have an awesome husband, Brian, a 9-month old daughter, Brooklyn, and a 
darling cat, Nermal.  My family is very important to me and I tend to 
establish my classroom as a functioning family of its own.

I graduated from The University of Oklahoma in 2005 with a Bachelor's in 
English and have my Masters in Traditional Studies of English 
Literature from UCO. I am also a member of Sigma Tau Delta, which is the 
International Honor Society 
for English.

I am truly passionate about education, particularly reading and writing.  If 
you see me without a book in my hand, I promise there is one within reach! I 
believe that every child has a beautiful story to contribute to this world 
and hope that my teaching will impact them in such a way that our work in 
this class will shape and enhance the story they end up telling.

I'm looking forward to a great year!
