About the Teacher

SCHOOL: Hopewell Middle School

CLASS: 8th Grade Science

SCHOOL PHONE: 464-5285


I'm so excited to be back at Hopewell Middle School this year. I have taught 
both 8th grade science and IPC/TAKS science at the high school level. I am a 
graduate of Leander High School and The University of Texas at Austin. I 
have a Bachelor of Arts in Biology from U.T. My husband is a coach at Round 
Rock High School and you can find me at the Dragon football games on Friday 
night. I love Longhorn football and baseball and the Boston Red Sox.

We also have a son, Eli, who is one year old and a Jack 
Russell/Rat Terrier dog named Jackie. 

The goals for 8th grade science are to increase proficiency on the TAKS test 
from 71% passing to 90%. I truly believe that if we work together as a team, 
this can be achieved. It is also always my goal in science to make what we 
learn in the classroom relevant to the real world. 

Please don't hesitate to call, email or come by during school hours. I would 
love to welcome parents into the classroom to see what we are doing. I look 
forward to a very successful year with your son or daughter!
