Hello,

My name is Katherine Chavez. I am teaching 7th grade Science this year at Jackson Middle School. This is my first year at Jackson but my 6th year as a teacher. I was born and raised in San Antonio. I attended Texas A&M University and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Public Health. After graduation, I moved to South Korea, where I taught English at a middle school for 2 years. When I returned to America, I moved to Oklahoma City, where I taught 7th grade science for 2 years, and 7th grade math as well as Pre-Algebra for 1 year. While teaching, I received a Master's Degree in Education - Curriculum and Instruction. 

Teaching middle school is my passion and where I am meant to be. I love science and love that I get to share the wonders and natural phenomena of the world with my students. I am honored to teach these wonderful kids. Go Jags!
