Ms. Michele Ellenwood - Middle School Social Studies
Welcome to Middle School!
First off a little bit about me. I am a graduate of Northern Arizona University with a degree in Elementary Education with an emphasis in psychology. I am the mother of three wonderful grown children ages 30, 27, and 21. I am also the grandmother of two! This is my eighteenth year with Merryhill School.
I look forward to working with you this year as I teach your child social studies.
