This is my fourth year teaching at Clyde C. Miller.  I am a member of the English Department and has subsequently, have the pleasure of teaching two English courses, which I love.  They are Freshmen Literature Double Dose and African American Literature.  While, teaching freshmen and seniors exclusively may seem odd, I enjoys seeing the difference in the developmental stages of the two groups.  My teaching career did not begin at Clyde C. Miller. I have taught at both comprehensive and magnet/school choice schools throughout the district.  In addition to, having privilege of working with various age groups (elementary, middle, and high school).  However, the majority of my experience has been obtained at the high school level.   

There are various sentiments regarding in- person learning vs. virtual learning.  However, the top priority is safety, your safety and your family’s safety.  In addition to, the safety of the bus drivers, safety officers, administrators, teachers and staff. Therefore, at this time virtual learning is seemingly the safest choice.  Nonetheless, it is anticipated that in-person learning will resume in October.  Please remain hopeful, safe, and engaged.
