Mrs. Blanchard has been teaching middle and high school English since 1996, and she currently teaches 11th grade English, IB Literature year one. Her favorite books to teach are the ones that make you think differently by the end–bonus if they are weird or creepy! In addition to reading and writing and talking about cool books, Ms. Blanchard enjoys playing with yarn and fabric in her Craftivism Fiber Craft Club, snuggling with her dogs, and exploring new restaurants with her spouse. Although originally from Pennsylvania, she loves living in New Mexico and especially teaching at CCPS.
