Hello! My name is Bethany Mampre and I will be your child's math teacher for the 2014-2015 school year. This will be my fourth year in education, but my first year at Century.
I earned my Bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana, majoring in Elementary and Middle School education with endorsements in Math, English, and Social Studies. Math has always been my favorite subject since I was a child because of the "Ah-ha" moments and that is something I truly strive to do in my own classroom. Thinking critically about concepts allows students to take the information and apply it outside of the walls of the classroom.
Growing up in District 135 was one of the reasons that led to my career as a teacher. My teachers as a child in Orland captured academic memories I will never forget and made me want to give back to the community in such a positive way as they have done for me. I am very excited to jump into the 2014-2015 school year with you and your child and wish you the best year yet!
