About Mrs. D. Carter
I've listed how to contact me, in addition to my educational and teaching experiences on this page.
I'm an English Language Arts teacher at Midtown High School. This is my first year at Midtown. I teach 9th and 10th grade ELA, in addition to hosting meditation mornings. My husband Brian and I have a 8-year-old daughter, a 2-year-old son, and a 7-year-old dog. Outside of school, I enjoy reading, biking, baking, making music, doing yoga, and growing plants. |
