Biography

Hi, I'm Mrs. Amy Schilling.  I am a native of Aberdeen, South Dakota and have lived in Arizona since 1996.  I received my B.S. with a major in psychology from Northern State University, Aberdeen, SD and my M.A. in Organizational Management from the University of Phoenix, Phoenix, AZ.  I am an Arizona State Certified Subject Matter Expert for Psychology and an Arizona Highly Qualified Teacher for the area of English.  I have taught at JMPS since the school opened in August of 2000. 
Prior to teaching at JMPS, I worked in human resources for various corporations and non-profit organizations.  I have been married since 1995 and have two sons (the eldest born in 2005 and the second in 2007).  In my spare time I enjoy playing guitar, listening to music, reading, watching fantasy and sci-fi movies and shows, playing Animal Crossing New Horizons, and spending time with my family and friends.  I feel very fortunate to be part of the JMPS family.  I firmly believe in the mission of the school, and I am grateful to work with such a wonderful staff and student body.
