Agriculture Teacher, Department Head

High School Attended: El Capitan HS, Lakeside

College/University & Degree(s): UC Davis (B.S.- Animal Science, M.S.- Animal Biology

Courses Taught: Ag Biology and Ag Chemistry

I met my husband, Jesse Meade, as a student in the ag program and now I have the joy of teaching with him in the same place we met. We have 2 children and when I am not at work I can be found taking them to sporting events across the state. As a family we like to travel, visit National Parks, go to Disney, and hike the backcountry. Science is my passion and I love exposing students to investigation and exploration through experiments, hands-on labs, and research. I hope students exit my class with the ability to think critically and question the world around them.

Have any questions, email me: tmeade@guhsd.net
