My name Michelle Marko. I am a native to Fort Bend ISD.  I attended Sugar Land Middle School and Clements High School.  Teaching is my passion and I find it very rewarding. World cultures and animals are two of my biggest interests.  I attended St. Edward's University for my first two Bachelor degrees in History and Religious Studies. I then attended University of St. Thomas in Houston for post graduate work in Spanish and Philosophy.   I volunteer with an animal rescue and foster dogs.  I have taught at Hodges Bend Middle School since 2005.  Throughout my years at HBMS, I have taught US History, Texas History and World Geography and Cultures and have been a chair for Career Day since 2009.  I am a big believer in parent communication and I am here to do my best to help your child succeed.
