About Me!

Hi! I'm Michaela Clark.  I grew up in Marysville, WA and attended SPU for my undergraduate mathematics degree.  I swam competitively from age six through high school, played soccer for nine years, did gymnastics for four years, and pole vaulted in both high school and my first two years of college.  I grew up doing sports, going on vacation with my family (both of my parents are teachers), and enjoying time outside.  I still enjoy playing sports and enjoying time outside.  I have been married for three years to my husband Peter.  We met our freshman year of high school and started dating our junior year.  A fun fact about me is that my roommate from SPU was randomly chosen for me by SPU and we are now great friends.  She was the maid of honor in my wedding.

I have always wanted to do something with math.  For a long time I thought that was going to be with me as an engineer.  Now that I am in my fifth year of teaching I can't imagine doing anything else.  This is my fifth year at Renton High School.  I teach geometry, International Baccalaureate Math SL year 2, AB Calculus, and BC calculus.  I am also one of the math department chairs.  I love my students and the department I work with.
