Hello ♥ Welcome to my page! My name is Mrs. Richards and I will be teaching Fourth Grade ELA. I have been a substitute teacher at BBSD for three years, and this will be my first official year as a full-time teacher.
I was born and raised in Johnstown, and graduated from Westmont Hilltop School District in 2013. From there I attended the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, where I received my Bachelor of Science Degree in Early Childhood Education. Upon graduating from UPJ in the fall of 2017, I began working for AmeriCorps, at Richland Elementary School, where I was an Educational Support Teacher. Then, during the 2018 - 2019 school year, I began working here - at Berlin Brothersvalley School District - where I had the opportunity of being a day-to-day substitute teacher for students in grades kindergarten - twelfth grade. BBSD is truly a wonderful district. I have had so many wonderful memories and experiences at this district, and I am so happy to now officially call this district my home.
I currently live in Berlin with my husband [Nathan] and two step-children [Carson & Olive]. I love spending time with my family and friends - as well as reading, watching movies, going for walks, cooking, and listening to music. I also LOVE learning, and I want to instill that same love of learning into my students.
