Michele Potestio

Michele Potestio is a teacher at Ida B. Wells who teaches US History and AP Human Geography. She grew up in Southwest Portland and earned her Bachelor’s degree at the University of Oregon and her Master’s from the University of Portland. Potestio has been teaching at Ida B. Wells for 25 years, and for the first 20 she coached the women's varsity soccer team. She became a teacher because of her love of coaching, the teaching community and watching the development of her 亚洲色图. Her advice to 亚洲色图 is to, “Enjoy your time in high 亚洲色图 because it goes by fast; focus on learning as much as you can and take advantage of the education teachers are providing.” Outside of 亚洲色图, Potestio enjoys spending time outside and doing anything involving sports such as taking hikes, biking, golf, and tennis.
