Hello 6th grade families!
My name is Ms. Harden. This is my second year teaching at Burr Ridge Middle School, and my fourth year as a teacher. This year I will also take on two more positions: Student Council rep and the JV Volleyball Coach! I graduated from Illinois State University in 2014, and I am currently getting my Master's Degree in Educational Technology. A little bit about myself: I am an avid animal lover. I've always grown up with animals, especially dogs and cats. Besides walking my dogs, my favorite hobby is reading. Whenever I have a spare moment, I love to grab a book and find a quiet space. I harbor a great love for reading, and I hope to spark this passion in the hearts of my students as well! I am thrilled to open my doors this fall to your children and create a fun and positive classroom community together. I am honored to have the opportunity to teach and learn with this class, as well as watch them grow over the upcoming school year. Parent communication is not only very important to me, but it also helps our classroom run smoothly. I will always try to inform you of what is happening in the classroom through this website, weekly newsletters, ClassDojo, Remind 101, emails, and phone calls. If you ever have a question, concern, or comment, please feel free to contact me at anytime: Email: [email protected] Phone: 630-734-6646 Or submit your comment in the box below! |
Here is my little family: My Fiance and two fur-children! Bella is a Pitbull and Frankie is a Jack Russell-Corgi mix.

Every child deserves a champion – an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be.
