I am ecstatic to be returning home to Marana Middle School!  I began my career here at the Nest, and I cannot wait to continue learning with my Falcons. 

Teaching at MUSD for the duration of my career, I have served as an Instructional Technologist, Teaching and Technology Coach, and Geography teacher at MMS and Marana High School. Additionally, I was able to serve as an Associate Principal at MHS for three years. I am thrilled to be the Educational Services AP at Marana Middle!

I was born in Texas, but I have lived in Tucson since I was three. I am a proud alumna of University of Arizona with a Bachelor's Degree in History/Sociology, and I have two Master’s Degrees in Curriculum & Instruction and Educational Administration from Grand Canyon University.  

I have been married to a wonderful man and we have one fabulous son. We are a busy family that enjoys going to the lake, camping and traveling in between our crazy schedules of sports and busy social lives. 

Being able to continue to serve the Marana community, parents, and students with my love of all aspects of teaching and innovation is my honor.  The art of teaching, student learning, and education have my heart and I am excited to expand my knowledge and start this new adventure!  Go Falcons!

I am excited to join the team here at Marana Middle School!

I am originally from New York where I completed my college education and started my teaching journey. I have been in education for the last 18 years. Throughout my time as an educator I have served in different roles- teacher, instructional leader and administrator. 

I am married and I have two children. My husband and I spend most of our time at the baseball field or basketball court with our kids. We are very much a sports family and love staying active. 

I am a Marana resident and I am honored to be able to join the family here in the Marana School District. I am looking forward to an amazing school year!

I am incredibly excited to introduce myself as your new Associate Principal at Marana Middle School and I am thrilled to join this wonderful community of students, families, and dedicated educators!

I am native to southern AZ, and I am a proud graduate of the University of Arizona and NAU, so I can both Bear Down and Go Jacks! I have a wonderful husband and twin daughters who will be seniors at Mountain View High School. I love spending time with my family any way we can, but especially when we get to travel somewhere to escape the heat! I also love to read, learn new things, listen to music and go for walks–all things that help me stay grounded and focused in my work and life.

With two decades of experience in education, my career includes teaching upper elementary grades and middle school English, as well as serving as an instructional coach in MUSD. These roles have equipped me with a broad perspective on teaching, student learning, and development – from foundational skills in elementary school to the critical thinking and independence fostered in middle school.

I am committed to cultivating an inclusive and supportive environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Middle school is a unique and transformative time for students, and I am eager to support their growth, celebrate their successes, and help them overcome challenges. I am genuinely excited to embark on this new chapter with you. Together, I believe we can create a positive, enriching environment that encourages every student at Marana Middle School to reach their full potential. I am here to support, engage, and partner with you in this journey. Go Falcons!

As Associate Principal, Ms. Carragher oversees Discipline/Attendance.
