Welcome to 8th grade Language Arts! I am your wacky, crazy, silly Language Arts teacher. I have lived in Florida, but was born and raised in Michigan. Mr. Rau (6th grade teacher) and I moved to Georgia three years ago. We just had a our first child, Bobby, in April of this year. I have a BA in English from University of Central Florida and my MA degree in Professional Writing from Kennesaw State University. I do not like long walks on the beach or bubble baths. I have two dachshunds - Charlie and Scout (Scout is a girl and is named after a famous literary character - anyone know from which book?)
