Mrs. Harris

Hello There!

I’m Mrs. Harris. 

This is my 10th year teaching, although I have been in the field of education for many years. Before teaching middle school, I taught 2nd and 3rd grade. It was perfect in every way. I was able to be with the same group of students both years. When teachers get to do this, they call it "looping" with your class. It was such a wonderful experience and those students remain in my heart to this day. When I took the jump into middle school I was nervous at first, but it completely won my heart! Middle school is such an amazing, crazy, wonderful time. Students are quirky and such a blessing to teach during this stage. Now, I cannot imagine ever going back to elementary because middle school is where I believe I am called to be.

I received a Bachelor of Arts in English, a Master of Arts in Education, and a Master of Arts in Educational Technology all from Azusa Pacific University (APU). Although school can be difficult at times, I love learning and pushing myself to overcome challenges in order to grow. For me, it's also important to be a life-long learner so I can be the best possible educator throughout my career.
