Welcome to STEM and 8th Grade Culinary. This is my thirteenth year at Rossview Middle School. I received my bachelor's degree from Austin Peay State University with a focus on Middle School Science. I also graduated with a Master's in Curriculum and Instruction from my Alma Mater. One of my goals this year and every year is for each student to embrace the knowledge and content learned and form a deeper understanding of the life around them. STEM is a passion of mine and I hope to have many students grow fond of this subject as well as build on their educational foundation for years to come. I do have high expectations for each of my students and will expect them to give their very best at all times. This is the second year of 8th Grade Culinary and my goal is for students to create a foundation of entrepreneurship as well as proper use of kitchen utensils by showcasing their skills through Culinary Skills. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me.
