Tidbits About Mrs. Cook
I earned a BA in Child Development from San Diego State University,
I earned both a California Teaching Credential and an MA in Educational Administration from California State University Northridge
My first job as a teacher was in 1974 as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Jamaica
I began teaching at De Anza, now DATA, in 1989 and have never considered teaching anywhere else
I am a firm believer in the power of education to change a life
I love reading and usually have 2 or 3 books in progress at a time
I love sports and get my exercise by walking on the beach every morning before school, swimming, playing tennis, cycling, skiing, and kayaking
I love to travel and am working on my goal of seeing all 50 states- I have 19 left
