About Me
I'm Mrs. Atempa, the 8th grade ELA teacher and the Language Arts Department Chairperson at Bogota Jr./Sr. High School. I've been part of the Bogota school community since 2018. Every September, I look forward to meeting new students and building strong, positive relationships. My main goal is to help prepare my eighth graders for a successful transition into high school.
I'm excited for another great year ahead!
