About Me:
Welcome to my happy place! š„°
I am Carla Walters. This is my 34th year in teaching. I've been meaning to retire for several years (it more than likely will be this year), but I LOVE my students! I LOVE teaching! I love math! So, I'm back, and super excited for another year.
I am from Southwestern Pennsylvania. I started my teaching career in a small coal mining town in Southwestern Pennsylvania. I taught Consumer Math, Geometry, Pre-Algebra, BASIC programming, Advanced BASIC programming and computer applications.
Life took me to New Jersey where I had my 2 precious blessings. Dr. Matthew Walters is a chiropractor in Austin, and married to Dr. Amanda Walters (OB/GYN - Round Rock). They have blessed me with 2 grandsons who light up my whole world. š Mrs. Chelsea Foster is my daughter, and married Caleb Foster over the summer. I never could have dreamed she would become my co-worker! She is a Geometry/Financial Math teacher here at Turner. ā¤ I am so proud of these awesome individuals!
The next state on the adventure of life, was back to my birthplace in Illinois. I taught at Hickory Creek Middle School. I taught Computer Literacy to all 5th - 8th grade students as well as Pre-Algebra.
Texas has been home for 25 years. I have taught every math subject from Algebra 1 to AP Statistics (but not calculus yet). I was a Math Specialist and a Math Instructional Coach and couldn't wait to get back into the classroom and use what I'd learned.
We rocked Algebra 1 last year! We're ready to do it again! Let's do this!
