Kris has been a math instructor at Salem Academy for over 20 years. From the time she was a little girl, Kris has always loved math, science, and technology. As a faculty member at the longest continuously running school dedicated to education women, Kris strongly believes more females need to be encouraged to explore the STEM fields. She firmly believes that FTC is a wonderful vehicle to promote STEM. Her favorite part of this process has been watching the students grow in their knowledge by letting their curiosity be their guide. She also enjoys the fact that the FTC program allows for students of all interests to participate. This program is about more than the robot; this program is about encouraging all students to bring their talents together for common purpose. Kris is extremely proud of all the hard work the “Sisters” have done this year.

FTC challenges students in STEM as well as inter-personal and collaboration skills. Jeanette looks forward to learning with the teams and seeing students develop skills and interests through FTC.
