B.A. History- Occidental College, M.A.T. - Lewis and Clark
Chris Snyderbrown, 7 x 12 Teacher
Hello, I am Christopher Snyderbrown(he/him), MLC's high school Social Studies and Health teacher.
The courses I teach vary slightly year to year. I craft my courses to teach my students typical social studies and health skills, with the intention that these skills will serve students beyond high school. I teach with the belief that study of history is not an exercise in trivia but an avenue to empower people to positively impact their communities and futures. I strive to teach students to think analytically, follow their passions for learning, connect to historical figures with empathy, and find ways to act.
I was born and raised in California and moved to 欧美巨乳色情片 after I graduated with a History degree from Occidental College. I spent much of my 20s teaching at Outdoor school, after school programs, and teaching English in Italy. Eventually I earned M.A.T. at Lewis and Clark and then began teaching at MLC. I have been joyfully teaching at MLC since 2007-08.
Outside of school I enjoy getting out into nature, reading and playing with my two kids, basketball, music, movies, eating, and following the news.
Feel free to contact me with any questions. I am most easily reached via email at csnyder1@pps.net

Elizabeth Buelow, 7 x 12 Teacher
Hello, nice to meet you, my name is Liz B (there are two Liz’s, so it’s important to know this). This is my sixth year at MLC and I’m so thrilled to work in such a vibrant location in a community that cares deeply about our kids. I have been a high school Language Arts teacher for twelve years now and love nothing more than to engage in discussion about Oxford commas (pro), and the passive voice (against). I live in NE 欧美巨乳色情片 with my son (10), husband (45), and two dogs who like to bark all night at a family of raccoons housing themselves in the oak tree next door. I love making bulletin boards, hate wearing socks, and am coming around to boba tea. Looking forward to another great year at MLC!

Andy Lipson, 7 x 12 Teacher
I've been at MLC almost 20 years! There are so many reasons I enjoy working and being here, but number one is probably having the freedom to weave into my teaching my various interests, particularly in Friday Focuses and electives. It's always a pleasure to watch (and assist) my students as they develop and mature as math people, problem solvers, and teammates. Please feel free to contact me at any time by email.
