PHS English Department

Hello! My name is Vidalia Kuhl. This is my second year teaching, and my first year at PHS. I love to read and write creatively, and I hope to pass some of that passion to my students. My main goal as a teacher is to help my students become active, caring members of their communities, and that goal is the core of every move I make in the classroom.
