Inscription over the entrance to Plato's home (an ancient Greek Philosopher):  "Who knows not geometry, enter not here."
 
Inscription that should be over the entrance to my classroom:  "Who knows not geometry (or Algebra), ENTER HERE!"  My goal is to see all my students make progress while under my care.

A little about myself:  I've been teaching high-school mathematics for 19 years and this is my sixth year at Valley Center High School.  My first years were at El Rancho High School in Pico Rivera, a town in Los Angeles County.   I do have a degree in mathematics from California State University, Fullerton.  I am currently a resident of Valley Center as I have taken over the responsibility the family's avocado grove as well.

I look forward to learning more about my students.  Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it and let's have a great year.  - Ms. Rosa -
