Welcome!  I am Mrs. Lindsey and I teach 8^th grade Physical Science and High School Honors Physical Science.  I have been blessed to work at Fort McCoy School for the past 26 years.  I started my teaching career here and even met my husband here.  I consider the faculty and staff my family and Fort McCoy School my home.  Our students are wonderful, the surrounding area (ie:  forest and wildlife) is refreshing and rejuvenating, and our campus is beautiful and well equipped.  My husband always said that “Fort McCoy School is Marion County’s best kept secret” and I agree which is why I plan to continue teaching here until I retire (in another 20 years).  ♥

          Throughout the year, we will be hard at work reading, writing, and talking about science, doing lab activities, investigating, calculating, analyzing, etc.  Not only do I want you to learn about chemistry and physics but I also hope that you will enjoy science!

          I look forward to getting to know you!

A little more about me:

          I have a daughter (college junior) and a son (10^th grader).  We have several pets:  1 guinea pig, 1 cat, 1 dog, 4 chickens, and 1 pig. (In the past we have had steers and sheep).  I love to read, especially mysteries/suspense thrillers and science fiction  (favorite authors include Michael Crichton, James Patterson, Brad Thor, Cassandra Clare, Janet Evanovich, Lee Child, Tess Gerritson,. . . .).  I admit that I am a Star Trek fan (of all series and movies).  I love to draw but never seem to have time.  I like to do Zumba and strength training.  My musical tastes are eclectic – mostly country (ie:  Dierks Bentley, Carrie Underwood) and classic rock (ie:  the Eagles, Aerosmith); but also other artists such as Enya, Chris Tomlin, P!nk, One Republic, and the Kongos.
