Welcome to our class!  I am a Title I Reading teacher, Mrs. Rising.   I earned my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Elementary Education from Arizona State University in 1984.  Six years later I obtained my Masters of Arts in Elementary Education with a specialization in Reading from ASU in 1990.  My emphasis of my teaching career have been Third grade and working as a Reading Specialist.

 

In addition to being a teacher, I am a MOM!  I have two children, Geoff and Angela. Geoff has recently graduated from ASU and is beginning work as a Field Engineer on the road to becoming a Civil Engineer.  Angela is attending the University of Arizona to pursue a degree in Nursing.
