I want to start by introducing myself, I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary and Special Education. This will be my 5^th year teaching. For 2 years I taught K-2 Special Education at a different school and now work with students in 4th-6^th grade. This summer I celebrated my 4th anniversary with my husband, who is also a teacher, at Deer Valley Middle School. I has one fur-baby, a Corgi/Chihuahua named Archie, who I love to pieces. I am originally from California, moved to Flagstaff for college and then moved down to Phoenix to teach 5 years ago, so I am still getting used to the heat!
