Heidi Hardin
I am Heidi Hardin, I teach 5th grade math and science. I am a 2nd career teacher, having spent my first career in manufacturing. I have been teaching for 12 incredible years.
My philosophy of teaching is that learning can be fun. I like to incorporate all types of hands-on activities, where the students don’t even realize they are learning. I love the challenge of helping your students be the best they can be in learning and in life.
