Hello! My name is Mary Wilson and I am one of the 8th grade Language Arts teachers. This is my first year in Apache Junction and I am looking forward to the 2019-2020 school year. I graduated from Arizona State University with my Bachelor of Arts in Secondary Education, English. Originally I am from Nashville, TN but call Show Low, AZ home. I married my high school sweetheart three years ago and we have a wonderful life with our three dogs. I enjoy reading, running, watching basketball (I played for 10+ years) and going to the lake. I am a die hard fan of the Arizona Cardinals and the Phoenix Suns. Teaching is not just a job for me but truly a passion and I find it to be one of the most rewarding careers out there.  I can't wait to get to know each of the students and there family! It is so exciting to have the opportunity to teach at the junior high I attended!
