8th Grade Science Teacher Room 404

Hello! My name is Lahnna Addington.  I grew up in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, and moved to Chicago in 2005.  I attended Kent State University for my undergrad degree, where I studied Elementary Education.  I completed my master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction at Concordia University in Chicago and my science endorsement at The University of Chicago.  I have been teaching for 27 years, all of those years specializing in middle school.  I started off teaching Reading and Language Arts but fell in love with Science while in Columbus.  I have been teaching Science ever since. 
 
I am the proud mom of 2 beautiful children, Fischer and Myiesha, and I have been married to my husband Jason since 2005.  My husband and I live in Lincoln Square where we love to spend time outdoors, going to great restaurants, and spending time exploring the city.  Our favorite place to visit is Cozumel Mexico, where we love to chill on the beach, scuba dive, and eat awesome food!!
 
Cameron has been my second home since 2007 and I hope to spend the rest of my career teaching Science, doing awesome projects, and getting to know the kids and their families.
