Thomas Jefferson Middle School

MRS. TAMIKA WHITE

Welcome Back!  I am the 6^th grade Catalyst math teacher.  This year I will be going into my 22nd year of teaching. I have previously taught 3^rd and 5^th grade as well as been a Learning Specialist.  People seem to ask me which group of kids I have enjoyed teaching the most, and I always think I have truly enjoyed them all because each group has its own unique qualities. 

I was born and raised in E. St. Louis, Illinois.  I graduated from Lincoln University in 2001 with a degree in Elementary and Special Education. 

My family and I are extreme sports fans, and we love watching basketball.  We do not have favorite teams; we just love “NBA Champion LeBron James”.  

Lastly, I am a wife and mother to wonderful daughters, Kennedi and Lexi.

I will end this bio by stating this quote. “A child educated only at school is an uneducated child.” George Santayana
