I am a MAOS Concept Design Team teacher representing English/Language Arts. The 2005/2006 school year was my first at Monterey High and within the MAOS program; prior to coming to MHS I taught English at Colton Middle School. I have been teaching for ten years and I hold both a secondary English and Multiple Subject credential and a Bachelor of Arts from Fresno Pacific University. MAOS offers a unique public school opportunity for both students and teachers; our academy is an intellectually and socially rewarding environment in which to teach and learn.
