BRIEF BIO
My name is Karen Ross and my husband is Dale Ross. We are proud parents to three handsome sons (Joel, Evan, and Harrison) who graduated from the Tri-Valley Local School system.
After teaching for two years in the Noble Local School District, I came to Tri-Valley to teach fifth grade. Since then I have taught grades three through eight. I hold a certificate to teach grades one through eight and another for teaching talented and gifted students. In my 34th year of teaching, I continue to find joy in what I do!
