Ms. Dana Russell

• Hello, I'm Dana Russell.  This is my 15th year
  of teaching (7th at Lake Grove).  I'm originally
  from Brea, CA (Orange County) and went to UC
  Davis majoring in International Relations before
  getting my teaching degree from Cal Poly San Luis
  Obispo.  I live in NE Portland and love tending
  my garden, walking to restaurants/coffee shops,
  hanging out with friends, running, enjoying the
  great Oregon outdoors, and baking!  By far, my
  favorite hobby is to travel and I try to take
  advantage of the breaks we have from school
  to escape to destinations in and out of the USA. 
  Believing in the quote, "The world is a book, and
  those who do not travel, read only a page." by
  Saint Augustine, I try to open students eyes to
  other places and make them realize the world is a
  pretty big place, but we have a lot in common
  with other people everywhere.
