Hi my name is Sandy Palmer!  I graduated from Morley Stanwood High School in 2000 and am currently a junior at Central Michigan University.  I am a biology major/chemistry minor and will graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education.  I love science and can't wait to share my enthusiasm with my students.  
                                                                                                               
I work two jobs to fill in all that extra time that I could be sleeping.  :)  Early mornings are spent working in the Chemistry Stockroom in the Dow Science Complex and late nights at the A-Wall Indoor Rock Climbing Wall in Finch Field House.
I have 4 great roommates, Alli, Amanda, Becky and Patti in addition to 1 unofficial roommate that we all love, Robin!  

Interests

I love to swim!  Swimming is by far the greates sport ever, however Central does not have a swim team or a swim club or even intramural swimming. Therefore I joined On Belay, the Rock Climbing Club.  Since then rock climbing has become my new passion and I am vice president of the club.  The greatest part of On Belay is the outdoor climbing trips we take to the Red River Gorge in Slade Kentucky. The weekend is full of climbing, hiking, backpacking and camping.  In addition to club trips my friends and I take personal climbing trips to Kentucky, Wisconsin, Oregon, Utah, Nevada and South Carolina. The latest adventure took place in Northern Michigan at the Ice Climbing Festival!
 
                                           

Family  

When the food and money run out, mom and dad are the answer!  My parents, Susan and Curtis Palmer live in  Big Rapids.  My mom is an English/Business teacher at Reed City Public High School, she currently has her hands full with freshman and sophomore English.  My dad is one of the lucky retired guys.  He taught math and science at Reed City Public High School for 31 years and is now on the Morley Stanwood School Board serving as the Treasurer.  I have a "little" sister, Annie, who claims, I stress claims, to be 2 inches taller than me.  Annie a junior at Morley Stanwood High School and duel enrolled through Ferris State University.  She plays varsity basketball and runs varsity track.  Last spring she made it all the way to state in the high jump!  We were all so proud!  :)
