Hi all!
I'm Ms. Newby. Yes, that is my real name. No, I am not new here.
I decided to teach because I want to help young people discover the truth and defend it well. Also, I always heard the best stories and had the realest discussions in my English classes growing up, so I figured this was the subject for me.
English is fun and all, but even more than that I love being around different people and learning from them. Simply listening to and laughing with students and coworkers on the daily is a true joy for me.
With that said, I do not live at school. I much prefer being outside to being inside. I enjoy traveling, hiking, running, playing most pick-up sports, playing guitar, singing, eating baked goods, drawing, and doing just about anything with friends and family.
If you made it this far, congrats!
