Kenneth Howes, English
"I am from the glorious North of California, Red Bluff, home of cattle, mullets, and the country's largest three-day rodeo. I have taught at Chico State as a student adjunct, in Russia as a countenanced foreigner, in Brentwood as a young idealist, in Korea as an enraged alien, but it is in Fall River where I have cultivated my grey hairs. My lovely wife has blessed me with three children to massage the bunions of my golden years. I have several hobbies, but it is bicycling that defines what Emerson describes as "…the divine idea which each of us represents"."
Tamara Lopez, English
I am from the Northern California coast. I earned my Bachelors in English and teaching credential at Cal Poly Humboldt University. Later, I earned my Masters of English from National University; however, my greatest education has been being a parent and serving the youth for nineteen years in the classroom.
I have been at FRHS for twelve of those years of teaching and have raised my son(who is now a senior) in this beautiful valley. I enjoy spending time with my family and my pets and have an inner adventurer in me. I am always seeking new landscapes whether they be local or global. I am also an avid reader, writer, and baker.
