About Mrs. Hamrick:

Ms. Hamrick attended St. Edward's University in Austin where she graduated Magna Cum Laudewith a BA in English Writing and Rhetrioc.She has been teaching for four years and is currently teaching English I and English II/Speech.

She is happily married to Mr. Hamrick, Crosstimbers Academy history and technology teacher. Based on her car and most of her accessories, it is easy to infer that Ms. Hamrick's favorite color is red. She loves to read, and I write, and ride horses; she often competes on the weekends and comes back to call Monday sunburned and bruised. Also in her spare time she sews, paints, and enjoys graphic and web design.

Effort over achievement. I believe that when you put forth the effort then your achievement will come.
