Ms. Diane Atherton
Add Me as a Friend!
Northview High School
Class Information:
Room Number: B-6
Students per Class: 120
Class Description:
For many students my computer applications, yearbook and digital filmmaking classes are the highlight of their day. These are often students who do not achieve high success in their other classes; coming to my class everyday makes them feel good about themselves and often is what motivates them to come to school every day.
Position:
Yearbook, Digital Filmmaking teacher
Needs:
My students are from the low to middle income socio-economic group. Many students do not have access to computers, digital cameras or other technology related equipment at home. Their only opportunity to experience using advanced technology is at school. Any digital camcorders, cameras, card readers etc, would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Why Do I Teach?:
I love to bring out the student's creative side and watch their eyes light up when they have learned something that inspires them. I enjoy watching them open up on camera and be able to laugh at themselves. I hope I make a difference in their lives and they will be able to look back on my class with fond memories.
