Dear Students & Parents,
My name is Hedako Brown and I am proud to say that I am a Spartan. I am excited and looking forward to working with every student this school year. I have been teaching since 2007 and I have served many roles in education over the past 13 years. I have coached and mentored teachers, worked as an auditor for Los Angeles County Office of Education, designed grade level appropriate assessments and curriculums, and now I am back in the classroom. I love it! I have a B.A. in Sociology from UCLA, an English Credential, a Master of Arts Degree in Secondary Education with a cross-curricular perspective, and a Doctorate Degree in Education.
The best way to contact me is through my email address. It is my goal to make English Language Arts meaningful and exciting for each student. Let's have a great year!
Best,
Dr. Brown
