Ms. Brown
Hello! My name is Jessica Brown and I am the 7 White Language Arts teacher! This is my 11th year at MMS and each year I am more and more thankful to work in this community with my students and their families. I graduated from Southern Illinois University (Go Saluki's!) with a bachelor's degree in English Education, as well as a second bachelor's degree in Speech Communication. After college, I continued my academic career and obtained my special education certification, as well as a master's degree in Educational Leadership. I am already looking forward to starting my second master's program and I love learning. When I am not teaching I am usually at MMS coaching volleyball, which I love! Outside of school I love traveling, going to concerts, reading old classic books, spending time in the city, and being with my new rescue puppy...who is of course named F. Scott Fitzgerald (Fitz for short).
Please feel free to reach out and email me at jessicabrown@d15.org!

Mrs. Burton
Hello! I'm Caitlyn Burton, and I am the Social Studies teacher on the 7-White team. This is my fifth year at MMS, but my 11th year teaching, and I love being part of the Trojan family! I graduated from Bradley University with a degree in social studies at the secondary level, and I am also endorsed in language arts. This past November I completed my master's degree in Instructional Design and Technology. During my time as an educator, I have taught a combination of language arts and social studies at the middle school level. Middle school students are truly the best and most fun to teach! I love sharing my passion for history with my students. When I'm not watching history documentaries or visiting museums, I enjoy reading and spending time with my family. My husband and I have two sons, Nolan and Oliver. We also have a dog named Maddon. We're huge Cubs fans, and we enjoy traveling.
I am looking forward to a GREAT year! Please call or email me with any questions or concerns!
