About Jessica
I am a public school educator. I have been teaching in the same urban district for over 20 years starting as a paraprofessional. I have taught third, fourth, sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. I have also taught all content areas in an elementary setting and Reading, Language Arts, Drama, College and Careers prep, and Math 7 in a middle school setting. I have a Bachelor's of Elementary Education with an emphasis in intermediate elementary education (4th-6th grades), a Master's in Secondary Education in Math and History, a Master's in Reading Specialist, and I am working on my dissertation for my educational doctorate in Interdisciplinary Leadership. The focus is on teacher retention in a middle school setting as I have been in this position the longest and noticed how frequently staffing changes in a middle school compared to an elementary school. I want to know why this happens and what school leadership can do to prevent teachers leaving the classroom. I have three children ranging in age from 25 to 8. I also have a stepchild who is 16. I have many nieces and nephews, blood-related and chosen family. I am an active member in my community and just want to see people succeed. I also really want people to love reading. My favorite genre is young adult fantasy, though I am not currently reading for fun as of late. I have too much reading for grad school and I really do not have extra time. One day. I do read other genres and can help any student find something to read. I love sports - I coach football and track at the middle school where I teach. I love baseball and this is my favorite time of the year. I always find a team to follow in the World Series if my Washington Nationals do not make it.

I am willing and able to work through homework assignments using Canvas, Schoology, and Google Classroom. I will use existing testing data regarding reading level such as NWEA MAP data or assess student levels if existing data does not exist or is believed to be inaccurate. I will support students where they are and move them to where they should be. We will read books together to foster comprehension and write about what the students have read. I have 20+ years experience teaching students how to read and how to be a better reader. Students will improve their abilities in literacy and improve their academic achievement.

She is the reason why 23 years later I am still pursuing my dreams no matter the adversities and what people say. Her attention to her students to make sure they feel seen and are heard will forever mark my life and illuminate the person she.
