Hi there! My name is Mrs. Jones. I was born in Payson, but have lived in Springville my whole life. I graduated from BYU-Idaho and taught 5th grade for 3 years. I'm so excited to finally be teaching in a middle school where I can share my love of reading and writing with my students! You will either find me at the movies - a place where I can enjoy a bucket of popcorn and a red and blue icee, or snuggled up somewhere cozy reading a good book. My favorite book right now is Scythe by Neal Shusterman, and Studio Ghibli movies are always at the top of my list. I dabble in watercolors and acrylic paints. I also love exploring the outdoors and finding new places to hike. My son, Wellington, is currently 18 months old and I love showing him all the fun things the world has to offer (he also loves the outdoors, and will stop at nothing to get outside, even if it's way too hot!).
