Professional Biography Michelle Harris
Social Sciences DepartmentWelcome to the 2019- 2020 school year!
I am very excited to begin my second year at Riverside High School. I was raised in Ashburn, VA, and a graduate of LCPS at Broad Run High School. Following that I continued my education pursuing my undergraduate degree at Christopher Newport University receiving a Bachelor of Arts in History. I obtained my Master of Arts in Teaching at Christopher Newport University as well (Go Captains!).
When I am not in the classroom, I love to travel around the world, or throughout the US. When I don't have time to travel, I love to dance and go to various fitness classes, sporting events (Go Skins, Nats, and Caps!!), as well as spending time with my family.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about the class, please feel free to contact me via email.
All of my classes will have a Google Classroom page, the class code is listed at the top at the course information packet.
