Mrs. Leah Roberts

Welcome to Honors Ninth Lit, Ninth Lit. Comp. and AP Language and Composition!  My name is Leah Roberts, and I am very excited to work with you and your parent/guardian this year.  This is my sixth year at Cartersville High School (Go Canes!) and my 23rd year teaching overall. I have spent most of my career teaching Ninth Literature and Honors Ninth Literature, but I have a new love for AP Language and Composition with my senior babies. 

I have one son, Cade, and a fur baby, Scout (named after the little girl from To Kill A Mockingbird). Cade graduated from Cartersville High School in 2018 and then followed up by graduating from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University with a major in Computational Math/Data Science and a minor in Physics in 2021. My husband, Mark, and I are super proud of Cade's accomplishments, and even more excited that Cade and I are doing the teaching thing together at CHS. Woo Hoo! This is a perfect example of the Cartersville School System legacy in action.

I should also mention that I am originally from Tennessee and I bleed orange...Go Vols! (I know that is not always popular in Bulldog Nation, but I've got to be true to my roots). How about that College World Series National Championship? Go Vols! I love most all sports, and I am a former collegiate volleyball player. Our family has some unique hobbies: antiquing, hiking, fossil hunting, and metal detecting. I'm even considering adding panning for gold, but I haven't convinced my husband yet.   Cade took things to the next level with rock climbing and bouldering, but I'll stay on the ground. ;)

This school year promises to be exciting and engaging, and it is my hope that you will leave my class a better person, have a true appreciation for a variety of literature and gain a deeper understanding of rhetoric.  If you bring positive energy, a desire to learn, and a focused effort, there is nothing you can’t accomplish!  I look forward to the journey...Adventure Awaits!
