New Teacher!
We have an addition to our faculty and some changes to share with you! Ms. Makeda Meeks has decided to teach Leadership and Life Skills as an elective, and to work as a paraprofessional with us this year so she can gain more experience in the English classroom before becoming a full-time English teacher. We are thrilled that she will still be part of the family, and excited to announce our new English Language Arts teacher, Julie Greene! Here is an introduction from Ms. Greene in her own words:
Hi, my name is Julie Greene and I am the English Language Arts Teacher at Resilience Charter School this year! I love teaching English because reading gets kids to think critically about the world around them, and it’s awesome to be a part of those experiences with students.
I grew up in Naples, FL and graduated from the University of North Florida with a major in English and a minor in Religious Studies. After receiving my teaching certificate through Florida State College of Jacksonville, my husband and I moved to South Carolina where I taught 9th and 12th graders for the next two years. We moved back to Florida in 2013 and I have spent the last three years teaching 9th grade English and Reading at Eastside High School. I love being outside, going kayaking, hiking, traveling, and hanging out with my husband and crazy dog.
My classroom is a place where students are actively engaged in their own learning, and Resilience is a perfect place for that. I’m excited about bringing my experience and love of teaching to Resilience, as well as being a part of the strong Resilience community.
