Greetings! My name is Denise Jones, and I'm thrilled to say this is my 7th year teaching.  I grew up here in Danville, Virginia and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies degree from Norfolk State University in 2011.  I began my teaching career with Norfolk Public schools as a substitute and part-time math teacher.  I was employed by them for six and a half years in this district before moving back to Danville..  This year, I will be teaching Math 8. Currently, I live in Danville with my daughters..  I enjoy teaching, shopping, watching reality shows, and spending time with my family.

I use Class Dojo as a communication tool for my class. Please go to www.classdojo.com and create a parent account. Then join my class with the following links:
