Dr. Margaret Jurek
I have been teaching science since 2008 and here at Vista Ridge High School since 2012. Prior to becoming a teacher, I proudly served in the United States Air Force for eight years “flying” Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites and then as a government contractor testing GPS satellites and control systems. Since being at VRHS I have taught astrophysics, physics, physical science, and pathways/advisory classes. I have sponsored several student teachers and mentored/coached new teachers in the science department. I have also served as department chair for most of my time here. I have served on several committees from building-level, to zone-level, to district-level.
