Mrs. Ashley Hendrickson

Welcome, students and parents!  Thank you so much for visiting my page!  I am entering my 16th year as a teacher, my seventh year in Plano ISD, and my fifth year as the AVID Coordinator at CHS!  This year, I have to additional honor to be the PALS sponsor, and I am excited about my new role!  Last year I was honored to serve as the Plano ISD Secondary Teacher of the Year, and I hope to continue doing life changing work with your students.  I am proud to live and work in Plano, and grateful to be able to represent Clark HS at both the campus and district level.  

I've been a part of AVID in various capacities over the last 13years - as a co-coordinator, as an elective teacher, and as an active member of a site team.  In addition, for most of my career, I've been an AP and Dual Credit English teacher and professor, an AP Reader for College Board, and an AP English curriculum writer and coach for the National Math and Science Initiative.  Though I've spent much of my career in an English classroom, at heart, I think I've always run my classroom as an AVID classroom.  I am so passionate about the work we do in this program!  

I attended undergrad at The University of Texas at Austin, where I earned my B.A. in English, and then attended Texas State University, where I earned my master's in Literature.  My classroom is colorful and cheerful, and meant to surround your students with love, light, and possibilities.

With the support of my husband Jacob, and the love of my two beautiful babies Erik (6) and Johanna (4), and my stepson Liam (19), I am blessed to be encouraged daily to do the work that I love so much and am so passionate about.  

Please don't hesitate to reach out to me for anything you need for your AVID scholar or your PALS kiddo- we're blessed to have them here!
