Meet Ms. Jones I am excited about this 2008-2009 school year! This will be my 3nd year at Brogden and my 10th year as a teacher. I earned my Bachelor's at The Ohio State University and my Masters at University of Detroit-Mercy. Detroit, Michigan is my hometown. I have high expectations for my students and many goals I would like to accomplish this school year. My main goal is to enhance the math skills of ALL students through a variety of teaching strategies

Switching gears, I would like to apologize to all you Duke fans because I am for UNC! Also I love the sport of basketball and this will be my 3nd year coaching The Lady Dragons. Last season we were 14-0 and won the championship
