Fifth Grade

Hi students and families! My name is Trish Hayes and I’m new to Eberwhite this year! I’ve been teaching for 17 years and the last 6 were at Slauson Middle School where I taught multilingual learners and social studies. I have 2 kiddos who are also Eberwhite Owls.

I went to U of M, I speak Spanish fluently, I'm good at arm wrestling, have backpacked solo in many countries around the world and like to give out lots of jolly ranchers. And I absolutely LOVE my job as a teacher. Thank you for trusting me with your precious children this year.

Hello! I’m Ms. Wright and I am so excited to be your 5 grade teacher! I live in the Eberwhite neighborhood with my partner Ben and my 2 kids who both went to Eberwhite! My son Tucker will be a freshman at Pioneer and my daughter Elsie will be in 7 grade at Slauson this year.

I love to walk in the woods with my dog Iggy, read historical fiction and travel. I’m passionate about the environment, education, social justice and social emotional health. 5th grade is a really special year and I’m so excited to share it with you. You will be the leaders of the school, go on many field trips and learn more than you think is possible!

I can’t wait to get started!
