Hello and welcome to the 2020-2021 school year and my Canvas Profile! My name is Beth Belisle and I'm excited to begin my twelfth year at Timberline High School. I previously taught English at Squalicum High School in Bellingham. I received my B.A. in English from Western Washington University in 2005. I became a National Board Certified teacher in November 2014.  This year I will be teaching American Literature, Advanced Leadership and Intro to Leadership. I am also Timberline's Activities Coordinator.  While the start to this school year is going to look and feel different than what we are all accustomed to, I am looking forward to a year of learning and helping you to grow as thinkers, readers and writers, and servant leaders! My goal by the end of the year is for you to think, "Wow! I actually really enjoyed this class and I learned a lot too!"
