Cindi Avol - 8th Math

Email:cavol@hbcsd.org Students click here for my webpage!

Hi!
My name is Cindi Avol and I teach 7th Grade Math, 8th Grade Math and Algebra. This is my 12th year here and I have seen many changes in the Math Department. I have always been a supporter of strengthening the basics and digging deeper into a concept instead of skimming the surface, so I am thrilled that the "experts" are once again in agreement with me.

I earned my B.A. in Mathematics from UCLA and taught for four years at Lincoln Middle School in Santa Monica, CA. I retired from Lincoln to stay home and raise my four children. After being a stay-at-home Mom for 16 years, I returned to teach Middle School math here at Hermosa Valley School and found my home away from home.

My husband, Ed, is an avid runner and a professor at USC. My children, Dustin, Mackenzie, Hayley and Shelby are my pride and joy! Two have graduated from college, one is attending college, and one is about to begin college. They all still live in the South Bay, although one threatens to move to the East Coast. If that happens, I may have to learn to tolerate flying.
I have a reputation in the classroom of being strict and firm, but fair. My goal is that every student who graduates from Hermosa Valley be prepared for high school mathematics at whatever high school he/she chooses to attend.

MOTTO: SHOW YOUR WORK!
