Meet the Teacher HI Everyone! My name is Erica Arnett and this is my 14th year teaching in Michigan City Area Schools. This is my first year teaching at the Virtual Academy.  I taught 13 years at the High School.   For the past two year I have taught Credit Recovery.  Priro to that, I taught Geography for 11 years and loved being able to share my many travel experiences with my students. I am a life-long Michigan City resident having graduated from Elston High School. I received Bachelor degrees from Indiana University- Bloomington in Tourism Management and Germanic Studies. Afterwards, I spent 7 months working in Armenia and 1 year Germany. I have always been interested in other places and cultures and loved traveling, having been to 22 countries. In 2004, I returned to school to earn my teaching license and Master's Degree in Education in 2009 from Indiana University- South Bend. I am also the  Head Coach for the Middle School Swim Team.
