ABOUT MRS. BUZZARD

Hello, everyone! My name is Marissa Buzzard. I am teaching 11th Grade English, Creative Writing, and Mythology this year! I graduated from Lamar in 2015. Following graduation, I completed my undergrad in English Education at Pittsburg State University (Go'Rillas!) in December of 2018. After graduation, I moved to Oklahoma with my husband, Clayton. This will be my third year of teaching and second year in Lamar. After living in Oklahoma for several year, when my husband was offered a job back home in Lamar, we jumped at the opportunity. I am so happy to be back in our supportive community surrounded by family.

A few fun facts about me:

  • I love reading! (Shocker, huh?)

  • I am the assistant volleyball coach here at LHS. I played outside hitter throughout my high school career.

  • I have one dog; Milo, a black lab. Sadly, my Boston Terrier, Lola passed away this spring, but you can still see pictures of her hanging in my classroom.

  • I enjoy watching true crime shows on Netflix and shopping at Hobby Lobby.

I have a passion for learning and while I may be considered a "tough" teacher, there is a method to the madness. Anything that I ask you to do for class is designed to make you a better student, learner, and all around human being. My expectations are high, but I know that you can meet every one of them. I am excited to get to know each of you this year!
