About Mrs. Dickenson
This is my fifth year at Saint Thomas More and I am very happy to be back once again!
I currently live in Long Beach and graduated from Cal State University Long Beach with a degree in Liberal Studies and a teaching credential for grades K-12. I have worked as a teacher's aide, substitute teacher for grades K-12, or full time teacher for both private and public schools since I was 18 years old so I guess you can say I've held almost every job in the "biz". I turned 31 years old this year and celebrated with my students right before we said our goodbyes for the summer break. Throughout the year I continue to take workshops, classes, and anything else I can find that will help me become a more resourceful and successful teacher.
We'll get to share and learn more about each other throughout the year so I hope you are as eager as I am to start fresh!
Yours,
Mrs. Dickenson

Teacher Expectations
I became a teacher because I believe that all students have the capacity to be positive contributors to society. In order to make this happen, the teacher (s), parents, school, and student must work together.
1. I will always try my best to educate you by being prepared and motivated.
2. I will always have high expectations for myself as well as you, the student.
3. All assignments given will be relative and important to the material we are studying.
4. I will always set the example for you by showing respect for myself, my colleagues, for you, & your families.
5. I will always learn from you because I believe it will help me grow as a teacher.
