SHASTA SMITH 
I am a proud military wife. I am originally from Texas! Go Cowboys. I graduated with a Master’s from Midwestern State University.
I have been teaching for 7 years. Previously, I taught kindergarten and was a math coach. This is my fourth year at High Hills Elementary. I absolutely love my High Hills family. I enjoy running, a good book, and being an aunt.
I look forward to learning and teaching your child this year. Connect with me on Dojo!
High Hills is a proud STEM and Project Lead the Way School
High Hills Elementary School is excited to announce we will be seeking STEM Certification in conjunction with our AdvancED Accreditation visit in 2020. We are very proud to introduce Ms. Desirae Lowery as our STEM Coach this year. Ms. Lowery attended Project Lead the Way (PLTW) training this summer. She will be receiving more in-depth training so she will be able to train our teachers to incorporate PLTW in their classrooms. Ms. Lowery will be implementing STEM and PLTW in the classrooms on a weekly basis. She will also be sponsoring an after-school STEM Club.
