I am in my 4th year teaching at Murphy Middle School.  I enjoy teaching 6th grade Social Studies/World Cultures.  I attended Oklahoma State University and obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administation.  I worked for 8 years for the FBI as a Financial Analyst before becoming a stay-at-home mom.  My husband, Wilton, and I have 4 children.  All of our children have been MMS Mavericks.  My daughters are in college - I have a Longhorn, an Aggie, and a Sooner.  My son is a junior at Plano East.  I am a Cowboys fan - both Dallas and Oklahoma State.  I enjoy time with my family, my pets (4 dogs and a horse), watching movies, cooking, and reading and watching football.  

Sixth grade Social Studies is a study of people and places in the contemporary world. Students identify the geographic characteristics of regions/societies and describe the economic and government systems of these regions/societies. Students will use this information to explain and compare cultures of the past and present.
