~Below you will find personal information
about Ms. Burdick, the 7th grade math teacher. |
I grew up on a small dairy farm in Alfred Station, NY and graduated from
Alfred Almond Central School. I have 3 brothers and 4 sisters.
|
 |
I attended the College Agricultural and Life Sciences at Cornell University for two years before making the decision to teach middle
school math. I transferred to Cortland College where I earned my
BS in Elementary and Early Secondary Education with a Concentration in Mathematics (Magna Cum
Laude). While there, I was a member of the varsity softball team
and team captain my senior year.
I earned my MS Degree in Elementary Education from
Alfred University.
I am certified to teach grades K-6 and 7-12 Mathematics.
|
I taught at Scio Central School in
Scio, NY, for 11 years. I taught sixth grade for 9 years and then
helped create an elementary computer lab where I worked with students in
grades K-10. I also taught a couple of classes of high school math
for those two years.
I coached JV basketball and softball for several years,
and even added athletic director to my work schedule for a short time.
I left Scio to work for
Democrat and Chronicle Newspaper in Rochester for about a year as a
Newspaper in Education Coordinator. I missed working with students
and returned to the classroom. I worked at Keshequa Central
School(7th and 9th grade math) for a year before accepting the 8th grade
math position at Wayland-Cohocton. For many years, I also taught
basic math and introductory algebra courses as Genesee Community College
at the Dansville site.
I am starting my eleventh year at WCCS but will be teaching 7th grade math for the
eight year. This year, I am also teaching integrated algebra to
the accelerated 8th grade students.
I volunteer my time working with
many sports teams at Wayland-Cohocton.
|
I currently live in Dansville and spend a lot of time with my cat and
working in the yard. I enjoy hiking, reading,
taking pictures, working on the computer, watching all
kinds of sporting events, collecting cows, and being in school.
