Hello, My name is Anna Hoffman. The 2025-2026 school year will start my 15th year teaching Science and my 3rd year teaching 7th and 8th Grade Science at The Arts Based School.
Science is truly a passion of mine. I earned my BS in Animal Science with a Pre-Veterinary Concentration from NC State University, my Masters Degree in Middle Grades Education from East Carolina University, and a Post-Bachelorette Certificate in Clinical Research from University of North Carolina at Wilmington. I worked in the clinical research industry recently as well.
Family time is important to me. I have two fantastic kiddos who go to ABS- Jackson who is entering 6th Grade and Addison who will be a 3rd Grader. Often times you will see us together at various festivals and community events, please say hello! We also enjoy all the local museums, zoos, and trails as we like to stay busy.
A few of my interests include experiencing the outdoors in many varied ways including camping, gardening, and running at a pace where I truly can take in all of the various sights of nature! I am a true Disney fan and used to work at Disney World during several college internships. Reading and doing puzzles (any type) are ways I enjoy spending my time.
Our curriculum in science for 7th and 8th Grades is diverse, but both grade levels are able to enjoy learning from the realms of Physical, Earth, and Biological Sciences. There is something for everyone packed into our explorations of how things work in our lives.
With the help of the phenomenal Mrs. Gledhill, I am sponsor of the ABS STEAM Club which started during the 2024 school year. Reach out with questions about all the fun we are having.
Truly, I thank you for sharing your students with me. I am a better human because of interacting with your humans. Reach out anytime with questions!
