• Meet Your 8th Grade Team

     

    Mrs. Thude - Language Arts

    Mr. Bowman  - Social Studies

    Bowman Hello! My name is Sean Bowman and I am your Middle School Grade Social Studies teacher. I am looking forward to getting to know each and every one of you. This SRMS team is amazing and I feel very lucky to be a part of it.

    I graduated from the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College at Arizona State University. I have a highly qualified endorsement in middle grade Social Sciences as well as a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education.

    I love bringing history to life! I strive to make the content relevant to your lives in hopes you will make a personal connection to what you have learned. Be ready to have fun as we will be doing a lot of hands-on activities and projects this year. Please be advised, however, that this class will be very challenging, and I hold all of my students to high expectations.

    On a more personal note, I have been married to my lovely wife for 14 years. We have a 12-year-old son, Maxx, as well as a miniature schnauzer named Charger. I moved back to 好色导航 in June of 2008 after living in San Diego, CA. Prior to that, I played NCAA football at the University of Wyoming where I majored in Communications. Along with football, surfing, golf, and skateboarding, I play in a “reggae/rock” band and a fun cover band and love spending time with family and friends. 

    Along with teaching 8th Grade Social Studies here at Sunset Ridge, I am also on our PBIS team and the SRMS Team Lead. 
     
    Teaching and history have always been a passion of mine! I am so excited to take this historical journey in the classroom with you. Let’s have an AMAZING year together!!!
     

    Ms. Zabinski  - Math

    Hello! I am Ms. Zabinski and I’m very excited to be your 7th and 8th grade Math teacher. 

    I am a born and raised Arizona native with an undergraduate degree from Northern Arizona University and in pursuit of receiving a masters' degree from Arizona State University Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College.

    I am a Sunset Ridge and Boulder Creek alumni excited to continue my journey with Sunset Ridge. My goal is to create a comfortable, positive, and goal-driven environment so students can continue their success in mathematics. Outside of school, I am an avid hiking and enjoy anything regarding the outdoors and spend much of my time soaking up the Arizona heat.

    I am excited about continuing my journey and getting to know all of you.
