Welcome to Johnson Senior High School!

I have been teaching at Johnson for over 25 years because I love the students, staff and community. I have taught all grades throughout the years, and this year I am teaching English 9, AVID 12 and Advanced Placement Literature/Language and Composition. I like to build community in my classes and do a lot of partner, small group and large group activities. My favorite class games are "head, shoulders, knees and cup" along with "tigers, traps, people." But we also read and write and I try hard to find texts and writing assignments students feel connected to. I enjoy camping and traveling with my family when we have time off and just hanging out with my favorite people- and our dog. When I have time ,I love to read, paddle board, play pickleball and tennis and hang on my porch.

Please stop by room 1104 anytime to say "Hi"!

Go Govies!
