Certification

Lifetime teaching certificate

English Second Language certificate

Child Protective Services certificate

Standardized Testing certificate

After 30 years, I have received so many certificates. I don’t have access to them, but I probably could get copies from the school district that I worked for: Amarillo Independent School District.

Accomplishments: 30 years teaching 5th math. Students receive 95% or more on standardized test.

I mostly taught 5th grade math and that was my concentration at West Texas University. Class sizes were usually large, around 30.

I was the only 5th grade math teacher and my students did very well on the standardized test. One year we received 100% passing, so proud of the hard work they put into the learning that year.
