My Bio

Hello! My name is Cierra Warren, I am excited to be going into my second year teaching 7th-8th Grade English for year at STCS. Last year was fantastic, watching my students mentally and physically, and mostly seeing so many gain confidences in abilities they never knew they had. The goal I have for all of my classes is to make sure all students enjoy coming to my class and that they develop a new love for reading and learning.

I am a Southern California native that played basketball and graduated from San Diego State University. After graduating I played professional basketball for 5 years. After those five short years I moved to Arizona and a lot has changed, I starting coaching for a basketball program, then started teaching here at San Tan.

I enjoy teaching English because I believe the ability to read and write can help a child’s confidence. Over the years as an athlete I’ve seen how mastering a new activity could bring joy and an unspoken feeling of confidence. This confidence is key in the development of children and can carry into other areas of a child’s life.

When I’m not teaching, I am coach for basketball club program Open Gym Premier and the head Varsity girls’ basketball coach. We are a youth basketball program based out of Gilbert and we play in local and travel basketball events. I spend a lot of time with my family and the family I have gained over my years of coaching and playing. My favorite thing to do is babysit my nephew Josiah James.
