Mrs. Becki Smith
I am thrilled to be teaching at Sartartia Middle School! Educating the next generation for success has always been my focus whether it be in the classroom, educational publishing, in my own home or at my church. This focus began for me back in 1994 when I first entered the classroom as an 8th grade U.S. History teacher.
I enjoy helping my students learn to think for themselves, take responsibility for their learning and persevere to the next level of academic success. I believe in active learning and incorporating various learning preferences into my lessons. Continuous improvement is always a focus for me as I believe that as I get better, my students will also do better. I enjoy reading educational literature, scrolling Twitter for ideas on how to improve my classroom, and attending professional conferences. From 2017 through 2023 I took on the role of the SMS Professional Learning Lead. In this role I was able to work not only with students but also teachers! I worked alongside my colleagues to advocate for continuous improvement in our teaching skillset and facilitate professional development on our campus. The district did away with the position in the spring of 2023 yet I still love to help my fellow teachers learn and grow.
When I am not in the classroom I am busy enjoying my own family. My husband and I have two daughters who both attended Sartartia and are now in college. We also have two cats that are kind of like children too! I enjoy reading books, putting puzzles together, riding my bike and sitting down for coffee with friends.
I look forward to working with you to make this year the best ever. Please feel free to follow me on instagram at bsmitheducator. It is an easy way to see what we are doing in our class and the other educational journeys I am on.
