Last year I left the classroom to pursue a career in administration. Although I loved my work as the assistant principal of the Trotter, it helped me to realize that my place is in the classroom. I am very excited to be returning to teaching as a fifth grade teacher at the Trotter. I taught fifth grade for six years previously, and I love working with this grade level. I will be teaching all subjects except science, and I am happy to be joining Ms. Chavez and Ms. Hallett on the fifth grade team. I look forward to seeing my new students on the first day of school on September 7th! ~ Mrs. Mark
