Mrs. Hill
I am a graduate of the University of Tennessee - Knoxville where I studied chemical engineering and forensic anthropology. Prior to becoming a teacher, I worked for the University of Missouri Health Care, the Center for the Study of Organizational Change at the University of Missouri, and Coca-Cola Enterprises. I decided to start teaching because I saw a need for educators in math and science and knew that I had the skills and abilities to make a difference. I began teaching when my youngest started school. He will be a freshman this year and my oldest will be a senior!
In my 10 years of teaching, I have had the opportunity and pleasure to teach a diverse population of students level and preAP Chemistry; level, preAP, & AP Physics; level and AP Biology; Astronomy, Environmental Science; IPC; Principles of Technology, and Resource Science.
This year I am teaching level and preAP Biology as well as Astronomy. Additionally, I am stepping into the role as the Chair of the Science Department. I am very excited to be back in the Hive and am looking forward to watching all of our students learn and grow!
I will be using Google Classroom for the 2021 - 2022 School Year for lesson notes, assignments, additional resources, etc. If you are absent from class, missed something, or just want to hear me explain something again, you should check Google Classroom. The work will be grouped by six weeks and the posting names will start with the date assigned which should make things easier for you to find.
(Please join Google Classroom using the code for your class period.)
