Meet the Teacher
Elizabeth Downing

Welcome to 8th Grade Math!
I grew up in New York State and worked in Manhattan for many years, but I spent a lot of time in the area with my grandparents during the summers when I was growing up. I love North Carolina and enjoy being be part of the Raider Family. I’m looking forward to another exciting school year as we explore new content, build skills, and make connections.
