Kimberly Tucker - English Teacher

  • About Mrs. Tucker:

    This is my seventh year at Dawson High School, and my ninth year teaching English. I am a graduate of Baylor University (Sic 'Em), where I earned a BA in English Literature and minored in History.

    On campus, I work on helping students with College Applications and am a member of the Explorers Club, which is going to Spain and Portugal this summer. 

    This year I am teaching PAP English II and AP Capstone Seminar. I have previously taught AP English Literature and Composition, SAT Prep, English I PAP, English II, and English III, and a course on Academic Writing. My favorite authors are Kurt Vonnegut, Stephen King, Sylvia Plath, and Ernest Hemingway.

    In my free time I can be found reading a mystery novel, drinking my beloved coffee, or swapping film and TV recs with my students.
