Mrs. Karen A Compton, MS

 

2022-2023 marks my 13th year in Plano ISD at Plano East Senior High School and my 19th year teaching overall.  I have taught in five different school districts / systems in two different states (Texas and Georgia).  I have taught all levels of Chemistry (OnLevel, Honors / Advanced, AP, IB SL and IB HL) as well as Physical Science / IPC, Biology and TAKS Science.  I, obviously, *LOVE* teaching AP and IB Chemistry, which is what I get the pleasure of doing at Plano East!!

I'm looking forward to an awesome school year as we all learn and grow!
