A little about Ms. Abney… This is my 15th year in education. I have taught at all grade levels and
subjects. This is my first year at Hightower Trail and my
first year teaching at the middle school level.
I am an avid sports fan and spend much of my free time at sporting events with my family. I come from a big basketball family!
I also love to bake and spend many hours in my kitchen trying new recipes as well as old ones, surprising friends and family with treats all the time!
I am excited to be here and look forward to teaching your kids!

Journaling and IAN (Interactive Notebook)
Students will use their journal/IAN on a near daily basis. Unless needed for a specific reason,
they live here.
Some journals are fun, some are thought provoking, but all serve academic purposes.
IAN is where we will take notes about the contents we’re working on.
