Teacher Spotlight: Ms. Heins

Meet Ms. Emily Heins, our incredible English teacher for 8th through 12th grade!

Ms. Heins believes that every student wants and deserves the opportunity to learn. One of her favorite parts of teaching is watching her students develop critical thinking skills that help them navigate and better understand the world.

With an undergraduate degree in Secondary English Education from New Mexico State University and a graduate degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Western Governors University, Ms. Heins brings passion and experience to the classroom. Having grown up in Sierra Vista, she’s excited to see American Leadership Academy providing new educational opportunities for our community’s youth.

A Message from Ms. Heins:
“To my students: It is both an honor and a privilege to be your teacher. As always, I love you.”

We are so grateful to have Ms. Heins as part of our ALA family! Thank you for all you do!
