Miss Plisko
A little about myself...I am a 2006 graduate of Riverside, GO VIKES!, and a graduate of Marywood University. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Biology and a Master's Degree in Biotechnology. I spent a year working closely with the genetics of microscopic worms, called nematodes, specifically studying their fat metabolism genes. I also spent a year as a microbiologist at the Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation where I helped analyze human tissues prior to surgical use. My professional interests include cellular biology, microbiology, and biochemistry. When I'm not being a nerd (which I believe is a compliment!), I enjoy all sports, especially Penn State football, the Philadelphia Eagles, and the Philadelphia Phillies.I currently teach AP Chemistry, Honors Chemistry (dual enrollment), and Chemistry, in addition to being the Science Department Chairperson. You can find information about all of my classes, homework, upcoming assignments/tests, and class announcements at the following link to my Google Sites webpage Miss Plisko's Science Webpage. The google page, my google classroom, and MMS will be updated weekly. I can be reached at jessica.plisko@riversidesd.com.
