Hello, and welcome to Mrs. Haden's English class! 

 

I was born and raised in Manassas, Virginia, where I graduated from Prince William County Public Schools. Growing up, it didn't take long for me to realize that my calling was to be a teacher. When I was about 9 years old, I had two younger siblings who needed to know how to read and write. My mom bought me a chalkboard, and eight years later, I attended James Madison University (GO DUKES!) where I earned both my Bachelor's in English and my Master's in Education. I have taught previously at Potomac Falls High School for five years, but I am excited to start a new chapter in my life as a Falcon now at Briar Woods! 

 

 

Fun Facts About Me:

I am the proud owner of two rabbits, Hatti and Castiel, who are so large that they intimidate most small dogs. 

My husband and I are now also the proud owners of a beautiful border collie named Fenway. 

My favorite color is purple. 

I LOVE Shakespeare and Alice in Wonderland 

Edgar Allan Poe is my favorite Amercian author. 

I coach colorguard and winterguard at Potomac Falls High School. This will be my 6th year working with their guard program. 

 

 

 

I am very excited for the 2020-2021 school year here at Briar Woods High School where I can share my love of English Literature with all of my students.
