Tracy Ferraez, Middle School Religion, 8th Grade Biology

Hello to you all!  My name is Tracy Ferraez.  I am starting my 16th year at ACS with great appreciation for this wonderful #unicorn school.  Before I came to work here, I was involved as a parent.  My children have all attended school here, and if these walls could talk, what a story they would tell!  I am looking forward to teaching Middle School Religion and 8th Grade Biology this year, as well as doing some inclusion for students with accommodation plans.  

 

Here is a little of my background.  Although I was born in Indiana, my parents are both from Mississippi.  My father was born in Greenville, and my mother was born in Vicksburg.  After high school, I moved to Starkville to attend MSU where I earned a BA in Business Administration.  In my early forties, I decided that I wanted to change careers, so I went back to school and got a BS in Elementary Education.  Two years ago, I completed my Masters in Special Education.  

 

My husband Douglas and I live in New Hope.  Together we have 6 children who are all grown up.  My youngest daughter graduated high school in May and will be gone very soon.  With all of my newfound freedom, I look forward to devoting myself to your children.  This year is going to be a blast!
