Mrs. Irwin has been a science teacher at Park View since 2014.  Prior to becoming a teacher, Mrs. Irwin had a successful career in finance and technology for 18 years.  However, her passion for working with young people led her to go back to school to get her M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction from George Mason University.

When she is not teaching, Mrs. Irwin enjoys watching her daughters play sports, taking care of her dogs, and traveling with her husband and family.   Mrs. Irwin enjoys reading about science and non-science subjects. Her favorite book is The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.  Her favorite books about science include Lab Girl by Hope Jahlren.

Mrs. Irwin loves helping students learn about science.  She encourages her students to seek extra help when they have questions.  She is available for extra help  after school.
