Brittany Cook- Science Teacher

Hi, I am Brittany Cook and I teach middle and high school science. I grew up on a farm north of Springfield, MN so working at MACCRAY for the past 10 years has been a great fit for me. I have two girls who keep me busy but I make time for my two favorite hobbies, reading and working out. My favorite part about being a teacher is creating connections with students and helping them find something that interests them in science!
