Name: Tashena Peltier
Years Teaching: 3 years
Years with BSO: This is my first year!
Favorite food: It's really hard to beat a good steak or a smoked brisket.
Favorite color: Green
Pets: I have a lot of pets so I won't include the ones that belong to my
husband or daughter. Two corgis, two horses, two parakeets, peacocks, and
a couple cows that are pets as well as the rest of the livestock.
Hobbies: I really enjoy training and riding horses, reading a good book, and
fishing when I get the chance.
What do you love about teaching? I absolutely love getting to know the
students and getting to share the language of math with them. I'm kind of
a nerd when it comes to math.
What do you love about teaching with Branson? It is really difficult to
narrow down all the reasons that I love teaching with Branson into a short
answer, but I'll try my best. It has to be that Branson has a small town
school feel to it and we all get to know each other and are able to build
relationships with the students and parents.
Favorite season? Why? Definitely spring. I love watching all of the
lambs, calves, and other babies running and playing and watching all of the
plants in my garden grow.
Favorite place you have traveled to? It's a tie between Patras, Greece
and the Amalfi Coast in Italy.
# 1 item on your bucket list: I'd like to go to Ireland, Scotland, and Iceland.
Favorite book/author: Chris Colfer's Land of Stories series currently at the
top of my list.
Favorite sport: Rodeo
