Dear Cottonwood School Families,

I'm looking forward to a fantastic 2017-2018 school year!  I feel privileged to have joined the Cotttonwood K-8 staff as well as the Hemet Unified School District for my 6th year!  I graduated from Azusa Pacific University with a General Science Credential and Multiple Subject Credential.  In addition, I received a Master's in Digital Teaching and Learning in Education.  After completing my Master's, I found that I love incorporating multiple forms of technology into my lessons to help engage student learning. 

I have a variety of different passions and hobbies in addition to education.  Family and friends are extremely important to me, and my husband and I are blessed with two wonderful children.  I love to garden.  I grow a large variety of fruits and vegetables to use in my dishes.  My home is adorned with a variety of animals.  I have a Sheltie (think "Lassie" but smaller) who is named Peyton after the famous Peyton Manning, two cats named Thelma and Louise after the movie, and two parakeets that I rescued.  I love to exercise and be physically fit (as much as possible while loving chocolate simultaneously).  My favorite fitness activity is Zumba.  I love the outdoors.  Camping is a tradition for my family and we camp in the beautiful Yosemite National Park each year.  I hope that my experiences and passions translate into a positive experience and dynamic learning environment for all of those in my class!

My goal is to ignite an enthusiasm and excitement for science!  I want to make the curriculum and material as accessible as possible to all students and their family.  I encourage open communication and if there are any comments or concerns I would love to hear them! Together we can all make for a very successful year!

Sincerely,
Courtney Martin
