Greetings and welcome to Mrs. Soland's science classroom! My name is Mrs. Soland, and I am excited to have you in my class this semester. Here's a little information about me (your teacher):
I received my Bachelor of Science degree in psychology and biology from Arizona State University. Afterwards, I worked in special education for two years while earning my Masters degree in Secondary Education from Northern Arizona University.
I have been teaching science for sixteen years. I started my career teaching 6th, 7th, and 8th grade science at Pioneer Elementary, and then transitioned over to Cactus High School in 2013, so I am very familiar with the Cactus cluster of schools. (Oh, yeah, did I mention I graduated from Cactus High School? Go Cobras!!) Before teaching, I was an instructional assistant in a resource classroom at Desert Palms Elementary. (That's a total of eighteen years that I've been in the classroom!) Currently, I teach Biology, Biology Honors, and B.A.T. (Biological Applications and Technology). I am looking forward to a great year at Cactus and in the science classroom.
Please use this site to check the calendar for your class. All information, links, and announcements will be found on the calendar.
