Mrs. McDonald's Science Stuff

  • I LOVE CHEMISTRY!!  After several years as a research chemist, I returned to school to pursue my true calling as an educator.  I have a Masters in Science Education from Wake Forest University and a BS in Chemistry from UNC-Wilmington. I've been a science teacher at Southwest since 2010. I look forward to contributing to the success of my students and instilling in them an appreciation and understanding of chemistry as well as science in general.  I was selected to be an NC Space Education Ambassador for NASA this past fall and look forward to implementing "space stuff" into the curriculum.  Follow me on Twitter @SciSorceress or email me at mcdonaj2@gcsnc.com.
