I'm really excited about all the great experiences my students and  I will have this year at Miffinburg Area High School!  I'm glad you decided to check out my classroom website.  This website's primary purpose is to be a connection between home and school.  Here you will find information about me, my educational philosophy, a page of web resources, and a page for each course I teach including copies of items such as a course syllabus and a course pacing guide (Continuity of Education).  Just click the tab on the left for the course that you want to check out!



About Mrs. Zimmerman
The 2020-2021 school year is my eleventh year teaching at Mifflinburg Area High School.  I am looking for more great things to happen this year!  Prior to coming to Mifflinburg, I graduated from Danville Area High School and attended Bloomsburg University.  I received my bachelor's degree in Secondary Education with certifications in English and Social Studies from Bloomsburg University in 2010.  In 2015 I also completed my Master of Science in Reading with a certification as a Reading Specialist from Wilkes University.  This year, I am teaching four different ELA courses: Honors English Language Arts 9, Research Writing and Public Speaking, Career Communications, and English Language Arts 12.  

In high school I was involved in Danville's FFA chapter; I love how active our FFA chapter is here in Mifflinburg!  I also showed dairy heifers in 4-H at my county fair as well as at the Bloomsburg Fair.  My connection to agriculture is also how I met my husband, Jeremiah, who is from the Mifflinburg area.  In addition to my agricultural interests, I have always loved history, reading, and writing.  I also enjoy running and have completed several half marathons, 5 Ks, and two full marathons.

My parents, who still live in Danville, are very important to me and I value the time that I have to spend with them.  Also, I am so proud of my younger brother who served our country in the United States Air Force!  My husband and I also have two precious little boys; we feel very blessed to have them to journey with us through life.

My husband and I currently live west of Laurelton, and I love the natural and agricultural beauty of western Union County.  There is no place else that I would rather be!
