About Me

Hello! My name is Ms. Armstrong and I am your child's Language Arts teacher. I am very excited for the upcoming school year. I am looking forward to meeting each one of you and getting to know your child.

I am originally from Memphis, TN and have been living in Phoenix since 1993. I am a graduate of Arizona State University. I began teaching in 2000 and taught in the Madison School District till 2014. I have a son, born in 2003, named Kee (means 'little boy' in Navajo) and a daughter, born in 2007, named Dzani (means 'woman' in Navajo). They are the love of my life.

Why do I teach?

Language Arts Linksericson Room 55mrs. Mcbride Md

I became a teacher because I love kids. I also remember what it was like being in middle school and how tough school could be. I want to make learning rewarding and fun for my students, all the while, having high standards and expectations.

I am a strict teacher and have high expectations. However, my expectations are never so high my students can't reach them. My work is easy, but there is a lot to do in order to comply with the Arizona state standards. If students don't pay attention and don't stay on top of their work, they could fall behind and their grades could suffer. There is an enormous amount of help in my class, so there should never be an excuse for not completing an assignment. I am here for my students, but I do expect them to meet me halfway.
