Welcome!
Welcome to my website -- a site I began when I was still teaching English at West Stokes High School. I left my classroom to become an instructional coach and have since taken a position as an assistant principal back at West Stokes.
Although my career has veered onto a slightly different path now, I hope the materials on this site will still be useful to any students or colleagues who happen to stumble upon this page.
I taught English for about 14 years total -- 4 years at the middle school level, 8 years at the high school level, and about 2 years at the college level. The study of literature and language will always be a passion of mine, so I'm sure I will add to this site in some way. However, this website now serves as more of a resource for teachers and students, as well as a way for me to continue to connect with students and parents here at MOES.
As I work towards that end, the layout of the site may change some over the next few months, so if you've used it before and can't get to something, just slide over to the tabs to see where I've moved things. I promise I won't be deleting items, just moving them. :)
Thank you so much for visiting this site, and I sincerely hope you will find the information here helpful throughout the year.
