My name is Ms. Bazuin. I've been teaching for 10 years this year and love the home I have made for myself and my students at KMS! I was born in The Netherlands and have lived in Arizona since I was 4 and I am a Kyrene Kid! In my free time, I can be found at home reading a good book with my cat and dog, out on a motorcycle ride or working on my '89 VW Rabbit.

💚💚💚

Ms. Bazuin is teaches 7th Grade Language and Literature, Individuals and Societies, and is one of our NJHS Co-Advisors. Thank you for being a part of our community Ms. Bazuin!
