About Me...

Hello and welcome to my class site! My name is Ms. Morris and I am so excited to work with you and your student this school year. As a Hobbton graduate myself, I am passionate about the success of the youth in our community. One of my main goals as a math teacher is to create a deeper understanding of the "why" behind the mathematics in order to foster a love for learning!

Prior to teaching at HHS, I graduated from Randolph College in Lynchburg, VA with a B.A. in Mathematics and a minor in music. I started my teaching career teaching 7th grade math in Virginia, but I am so excited to be back in Wildcat Country!

If you or your student need anything please do not hesitate to reach out. The best way to reach me is email (kmorris@sampson.k12.nc.us). I am happy to set up a phone call, virtual, or in person meeting upon request. I would love to connect and collaborate on how to help your student succeed!
