Hello! My name is Malia Leaverton and I am new to the Highland School District this year. I am so excited to be teaching 6th grade English Language Arts here at Highland Middle School. I became an English teacher because I love learning, and I especially love teaching reading and writing.

When I'm not teaching, I love to spend time with my husband and my two Labrador dogs, my family, and my friends. I love hiking, reading, running, and watching movies.
