Dear Students and Families,

 

I teach 9th Grade English and American Literature and am so proud to be a staff member at Oak Harbor High School. I am a graduate of Washington State University - Go Cougs! I also coach volleyball here at the high school and enjoy the opportunity to impact students' lives both academically and athletically - OHHS is very proud of its emphasis on the well-rounded individual - Go Wildcats!

 

If you have a question or concerns regarding your student, I am readily available by email and telephone. The best contact hours would be from 7:10 a.m. - 2:45 p.m. during the workweek, however emails over the weekend are promptly responded to as well. 

 

Regards,

Students will also learn of various historical and cultural perspectives such as The Great Depression with Of Mice and Men, Elizabethan Era for Romeo and Juliet and Greek mythology covering The Odyssey.
