• Meet Mrs. Skjelstad

    Hello! Welcome to my Algebra I page.  

    Here is a little background information about me.

    • I grew up in Levelland, TX.  I graduated from Levelland High School in 2002.  We were called the Levelland Lobos. 
    • I graduated from Texas Tech University with a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics in 2007.  I received my Master's Degree in Education with an emphasis in Teacher Leadership from Lamar University in 2014.  
    • Before moving to Iowa Park, I taught Algebra I and Algebra II at Corsicana High School in Corsicana, TX for two years.
    • We moved to Iowa Park in 2010 for my husband’s job. 
    • I taught high school math in Iowa Park from 2010-2015.  I was the Academic Coordinator at IPHS from 2015-2018 until we moved to Bellevue, WA and I was a special education math teacher there for one year.  We moved to WA to be close to my husband’s family. 
    • We decided we missed ole Iowa Park, so we moved back in 2019.  I have been back to teaching high school math since 2019 when we moved back.
    • This will be my 17th year in education.
    • My husband's name is Patrick and he is a fireman for the Wichita Falls Fire Department.  We love the Seattle Seahawks (my husband is from the Seattle area). 
    • We have two kiddos – Everett is 6 years old and going into kindergarten and Payton is 14 years old and will be a freshman at IPHS!
    • I am looking forward to learning about you and working with you this year!
