Educators, Students, & Parents
This site is my way of establishing ongoing interactive communication with students, families, and colleagues. By offering resources needed to be successful in various math classes and on standardized tests such as HSAP, Algebra I EOC, and SAT Prep!
 
My teaching strives to meet the needs of all learners. Math can be fun and relevant- let me show you how! You can access my Algebra I, II, Geometry, Probability and Statistics, and review materials by clicking on Class Resources in the Navigation Bar on the left side of the screen and select the topic of your choice!

This is my 7th year teaching high school math at Septima Clark Corporate Academy in Charleston, SC. An alternative high school designed to help meet the needs of learners so they can gain the 24 credits needed to graduate. We are a magnet school for the district and have a high graduation rate, preventing students from dropping out.
Feel free to contact me, with questions, concerns or more ideas and activities.
 
Teachers- if you are in SC and do not have teacher liability insurance check out the Palmetto State Teachers Association (PSTA)
