Welcome to 2nd grade at HES!  My name is Tori Skinner and I will be teaching math, science and social studies .  I will be teaching with Paula Davis who will be teaching reading, writing and word study.

A little about me!  This is my 3rd year at HES.  Before I came to HES, I taught in Spring, Texas, Collierville, TN. and Dayton Ohio.  I have been an educator for many years!!

I have 2 children, Houston is my oldest and he is married to Ashley.  They live in Conroe, Texas. My youngest is Hannah and she is 28 and is married to Ryan.  They just made me a grandmother for the first time.  Eloise was born June 4th, 2021.  I have loved spending most of the summer helping her with the new baby!!  

My core beliefs begin with HOPE.  Hope that through my teaching, students can do better.  I meet my students' learning needs in many different ways.  I keep engaged and try to develop a want to learn more and more.  I want my students to know they can do anything with perseverance, practice and effort.  I teach them that learning is a lifelong process and one that can bring great joy.  I believe in my students and will do my best for them.
