Spotlight

I love getting to know my students in the classroom through discussions and hearing how their outside-HBR lives influence who they are and the ideas they have. Watching them support their peers in the classroom and on the athletic fields also gives me a glimpse into their personalities too!

I look forward to mentoring the seniors at HBRHS in their last year of high school and beyond.

This school year what I am most looking forward to is helping students achieve their academic and personal goals that they have and creating opportunities for them to find success after graduation!

I look forward to getting to know the students of Hinckley-Big Rock High School and supporting them in every way I can. I particularly enjoy greeting them outside in the morning and recognizing familiar faces in the hallways, grateful when we can strike up a conversation together.

The students (and everyone here in HBR) have been extremely welcoming and accepting of me into their close-knit community. I can’t wait to see what the school year brings us!
-Tessa Farwell - English Teacher

I went from period to period on the first day thoroughly enjoying the friendly high school students. I feel like Little Orphan Annie looking around Daddy Warbucks’ mansion singing, "I think I'm gonna like it here!"
-Elizabeth Lopez - Spanish Teacher

Every day the students make me laugh, push me to be better, and reaffirm to me that I made the right decision coming to HBR. The community has made a strong first impression on me, and I look forward to the rest of the year and what we can accomplish together. Go Royals!

My favorite part of the day is when I can connect with students and share stories about ourselves. I feel blessed to be a part of this district and proud to be a part of this high school community.
