Erika Hendrickson Parks

Erika Hendrickson Parks has been teaching for six years; three of those years were as a long term substitute in both the Grossmont and San Diego Unified School district in the general education and special education setting. Erika was contracted at Riley and realized her passion for special education which inspired her to earn a second credential. She then transitioned to New Dawn as she always envisioned herself teaching high school students since childhood (pretending to teach in her mother’s classroom).

Erika earned her BA and Single Subject Teaching Credential at San Diego Christian College where she received a basketball scholarship, followed by her Mild/Moderate Special Education Credential and her Masters at San Diego State University. She currently teaches English, Biology, Art, and Applied Math.

Erika recently married her high school sweetheart (2016) and outside of her professional interests, she continues to play basketball on adult leagues and officiate high school CIF sanctioned basketball. Erika also enjoys traveling, playing volleyball, attending social gatherings, and arts and crafts.
