My name is Mrs. Burke.  I teach Math 6 here at Canton Junior High. This is an awesome place to be.

 

To tell you a little about myself, This is my 16th year teaching, but it is my second year here at Canton Junior High.  My husband is retired from active duty in the Air Force, so I have had the opportunity to live and teach in many different places around the world.
