Ms. Dawn Houser
Hello.
As a native San Martian, I have lived all over our beautiful country and moved back to San Marcos almost fifteen years ago for grad studies. With my MFA in Communication Design, I not only understand and relish literature, but I enjoy sharing literature's symbolism and critical thinking with my students.
Using an authentic voice and inspiring the creative process are superpowers that I awaken in my students. My goal is to be the brightest spot of my students' day and help them be the best versions of themselves.
I am a teaching consultant for the National Writing Project and daily writing is a priority for me in the classroom. Students will learn to trust the process and hopefully crave it, as well. Teaching English IV + Yearbook is highly rewarding and I truly love each of my students. [My students are my kiddos for life.]
My favorite things include hanging out with my three children and a menagerie of animals, reading, organic gardening, and creating things.
