About Ms. Rockey
Mrs. Rockey comes to us from Northern California where she taught at a middle school in Alameda, California. Although she graduated from Pepperdine University with her BA in English and Education, Mrs. Rockey also has a passion for history (such as world, US and church), travel, sports, reading, theater, and life in general! According to Mrs. Rockey, she is “blessed to be here and thrilled to adventure through the worlds of education with the Colina Cougars!” 

Her basic educational philosophy can be summarized in four ideas:

1) Everyone is born with the innate ability to learn, although it may be achieved through different learning styles.

2) A wide variety of subjects in education are necessary for students to cultivate understanding and creativity.

3) Education should be directly connected to life and its experiences as much as possible.

4) School should be a catalyst to learning, neither a hindrance nor the sole means.
