Ms. Ambrose is excited to be returning to River Bend Middle School for her second year as an 8th grade civics teacher. She grew up in Chesapeake, Virginia, and graduated from James Madison University with a Bachelors Degree in Interdisciplinary Liberal Studies with a minor in Middle Education in May 2019, and recieved her Master of Arts in Teaching in May 2020. As a teacher, she is passionate about equitable learning opportunities for all students, and teaching students life skills that they will carry with them well beyond eighth grade civics class. 

In her free time, Ms. Ambrose enjoys taking her daughter to the park, reading a good book, and cooking new recipes in her kitchen. She is happiest on a cool fall day, with a hot cup of apple cider in her hand, and a cozy sweatshirt. She is excited and grateful to have the opportunity to teach alongside the best teachers in the county, and form meaningful relationships with students that will last a life time.
