Welcome to 8th grade ELA. I am looking forward to another amazing school year. This year I will be starting my 26th year of teaching, my 14th in the Manchester School System. I have obtained a Bachelor of Science in Education from Bowling Green State University and a Master's degree in special education from The University of Akron.

I love teaching ELA and seeing students continue to grow or begin their love of reading while in my class! This year we will be using Google Classroom as our main platform this year. This site will include all announcements, assignments, and other essential information for this year.  Please use both Google Classroom and Progress Book to keep informed.
