Mrs. Finley - 8th Grade ELA & Science

Welcome to 8th grade! My classroom will be your home base for ELA and Science.

This is my 29th year teaching at Ripona. I am a native of Ripon and graduated from CSU Stanislaus with a B.A. in Psychology and received my teaching credential from Chapman University. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family, gardening, playing piano and hanging out with my rescue pup Lucy.

To prepare for 8th grade, please read our classroom policies and expectations handout which contains important information for both students and parents. Sign up for email updates from the Aeries Parent Portal, our online gradebook. These updates show your student's current grades in all subject areas. Your student will also be setting up a Student Portal account so he/she can access their gradebook information.

I look forward to working with you this school year. Please feel free to contact me with any questions! ([email protected])
