After Mrs. Hill's 5th year of teaching, she took time off to stay at home with her children.  She also worked with the Air Force for a couple of years while her family was stationed in Australia.  While doing her Air Force job, she realized how much she missed teaching and decided to teach in the local schools in Alice Springs, Australia.  When Mrs. Hill and her family returned to the United States in 2015, she decided to pursue her Masters degree at George Mason University in Education and Curriculum with a focus on Literacy Leadership Grades K-6.  Mrs. Hill achieved her Master's degree in 2018.  She also has her Bachelor of Arts from Loyola Marymount University, from Los Angeles California and received her teaching credential. Mrs. Hill is passionate about teaching and genuinely loves helping children. When she is not finding creative activities for her students, she enjoys spending time with her family, traveling and experiencing other countries, reading, and spending time with her friends. She is excited about working with your children this year!
