Ms. Simmons
Hello! My name is Samantha Simmons. I am a 1st grade teacher at Maxine O. Bush School. I have been at M.O. Bush for 7 years now with a total of 20+ years of teaching experience. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education from Arizona State University West; my first Master of Arts degree in Education with a Reading Specialist endorsement from Northern Arizona University; and my second Master of Arts degree in Administration from Grand Canyon University. I also hold an Early Childhood Education endorsement.
Personal life: I have a teenage son named Jonathan who also attended M.O. Bush. He currently attends South Mountain High School. My first love is spending time with my son and coming from a very large family, I also enjoy spending time with loved ones. On Sundays, I attend church services and I enjoy the fellowship of others. I am a social introvert, so I cherish my time alone to wind down, re-energize, pray, meditate, think, and explore on my own. I love children, good music, reading, research, and discovering new ideas. I enjoy basketball, boxing, concerts, good movies i.e, Sci-Fi, superhero films, mystery shows, comedy, dramatic cinema, you name it! I have seen over 10,000 movies and have listened to even more songs in my lifetime!
Fun Facts: I am a product of the Roosevelt School District and South Mountain High School. Also, my first teaching position in RSD was at the elementary school I attended as a child.
