Me voici -- M. Currie

WELCOME to my web page!  This is my eleventh year at Highland Park Senior High as a French teacher.

I have a B.A. in French and Education from St. Cloud State University.  While at SCSU, I spent a semester abroad in Nevers, France.  I also have an M.S. in Gifted Ed. from Mankato State and my Educational Specialist (K-12 principal’s license) from St. Thomas University.
 
I have presented at both state and national conferences on topics related to gifted education and French.

I look forward to a new year and hope that together we can make this journey of learning French -- in a D.L. 2.0 environment ....FUN!
