Alyah Balthazor

Hello!

My name is Alyah Balthazor and I am excited to be teaching 7th and 8th grade Social Studies here at Thermopolis Middle School!  I have a passion for helping students explore history, geography, civics, and cultures, and I love watching them make connections between the past and the world we live in today.

In 7th grade, we dive into geography and global cultures, while in 8th grade, we explore American history and the foundations of our government. My goal is to make Social Studies engaging, meaningful, and fun for every student through hands-on activities, discussions, and real-world connections.

When I’m not teaching, I enjoy being outdoors, working on the farm/ranch, traveling, and spending time with my family. I believe learning should be an adventure, and I’m so glad to be on this journey with my students.

Feel free to reach out with any questions—let’s make it a great year!
