Welcome to my Science and Stem Elective webpage. I am Cheryl Cook and have been teaching since 1996. I find it tremendously rewarding helping students grow academically, emotionally and meet their personal goals.

Defining Moment in Education

When I was a senior in the Geology program and the University of Arizona, a friend invited me to teach science lessons in a 4th grade classroom. I fell in love with teaching and immediately after graduation, I enrolled in a teacher certification program. I have enjoyed teaching science ever since.
