Christmas Day 2015 in Houston, Texas
My name is Denise Brown. I teach 7th and 8th grade mathematics at East Prairie in Tuscola, Illinois. This is my 26th year of teaching, 24 of those being here in Tuscola. I grew up in Monticello, Illinois and went to Illinois State University to earn my Bachelors degree in junior high/middle school math education. I earned my Masters degree in Mathematics Education from Eastern Illinois University in 2009. I began my teaching career at Unity Junior High School in Tolono, Illinois. I taught 7th grade math and reading there for two years before coming to Tuscola. I met my husband, Chris, while teaching and coaching there. We have two children; Ellen-SENIOR and Thomas-8th grade. When I'm not at school, I like to spend time with my family and friends and I also like to scrapbook our favorite memories.
