My name is Adrien Weeks. I am born and raised in Texas and hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Education from Baylor University. My husband Shane and I reside in Farmersville. We have a son named Luke and a GSD named Rika. My hobbies include staying active and spending time with my family. This is my sixth year teaching science and I absolutely LOVE IT. Most importantly, I chose teaching to make a positive impact on students as my teachers did for me. Please reach out with any questions or concerns that may arise!
