Ms. Windsor's Website

6th Grade World Cultures


Welcome to sixth grade World Cultures and Hedrick Middle School! My name is Amelia Windsor and I am privileged to teach your student the wonderful and exciting world of social studies. I am a graduate of Texas Tech University where I was involved in several organizations, including the Goin’ Band from Raiderland (the school’s marching band). My previous teaching experience was in a middle school in Lubbock ISD. This is my second year to teach at Hedrick Middle School.

One of the greatest tools of communication available in my classroom and many classes on this campus is SchoolWeb. This website will be updated weekly. Lesson plans, class handouts, homework, announcements and other important information will be available for you to view. If you ever have a question about what your student did in class that day, you can look on SchoolWeb.
