Ms. AckermanAfter growing up in Port-au-Prince, Haiti until the age of 18, I moved to the United States for College. I studied for four years at Indiana University, where I encountered so many enriching academic, social, and career opportunities. Upon graduation, I moved to Detroit to teach. Detroit is the first place in the United States that I have independently chosen to live, and it is near and dear to my heart. I love this city and love learning to call it home. I'm so excited to be working with all the fantastic staff, students, and parents in the Denby High School community this year!
