Big Rapids Middle School is excited to welcome Sara Fitzpatrick to our team as a new math teacher! A 2015 graduate of Big Rapids High School, Sara is thrilled to return to her hometown district and give back to the community that shaped her.
Sara is married to her high school sweetheart, and the two recently celebrated 13 years together. They share their home with a 5-year-old German shepherd who they lovingly describe as their whole world.
Outside of the classroom, Sara enjoys a good book, spending time on the golf course with her husband, and getting creative with crafting projects. Prior to joining Big Rapids Public Schools, she taught at Reed City High School.
When asked what drew her to BRPS, Sara shared, “Big Rapids has been making big moves in the past few years, and I wanted to be a part of it. I’m proud to be from here and still live in this community—I’m excited to give back in a meaningful way.”
One fun fact about Sara? While you might assume she's a Taylor Swift fan, don’t be fooled—she’s actually into alternative rock music instead!
Welcome home, Sara! We’re so glad to have you back!
