Mrs. Slomiany
Greetings!
Welcome to my classroom and Cleveland High School.
I graduated Cum Laud with a Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education with a Major in English and a Minor in Earth Science. I am licensed to teach 6-12 English: ELL, AIG, and EC classes. I also am certified and highly qualified to teach Middle-Grade Science and Earth Science. I received my AP Literature Certification from Meredith College in Raleigh, NC.
Professionally, I have been lucky to be teaching in Johnston County since 2006. I began my career with the county teaching at Cleveland Middle School where I was honored to be the 2007-2008 Beginning Teacher of the Year for CMS. After four years there, I was lucky enough to be able to move up to Cleveland High School. I have been at the school since the second year of opening our fantastic new campus. We are truly blessed to have such amazing resources and facilities. At Cleveland High School, I have taught all grades at some point 9-12 in English along with Mass Media and Creative Writing. Each year, this changes based on our staff and school needs. I also have been honored to participate in supporting our school and students as the previous JV Cheerleading Coach for several years.
Moreover, I was excited to pursue an opportunity to write curriculum and passages with some great companies, like Sophia.Org. I also worked with a team of talented teachers that helped to create the curriculum for an AP level Creative Writing course for our county school district. Furthermore, I have been able to see first -hand how state exams are created by helping to write passages and questions for the 8th Grade ELA EOG for the state of South Carolina.
Note: Students and their families are emailed direct links to interactive lessons and classrooms once enrolled in my courses.
#RamFam!
Have a great year! Mrs. Slomiany

ACCESS testing for English Language Learners
North Carolina schools are required to administer ACCESS for ELLs 2.0 to all students identified as English Learners (ELs) in the spring of each year to determine their progress in learning English. Each student is tested in four areas: Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing. This assessment helps us monitor their English language development.
