Meet the Staff
Ms.Helm
My name is Jessica Helm and I am entering my 6th year with Albany R-III School District. I love reading and being outside. I also love playing tabletop games and I even run a club for them! I am the 4th of 6 kids and my siblings are some of my favorite people. I have 2 nieces (Thea and Lydia) and 2 nephews (Robbie and William) whom I love to spoil. I have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and if you ask me about it, I will definitely show you a video of me breaking through boards with my foot. I teach multiple subjects at AMS/AHS which means my days are never boring. I also tend to wear fun outfits, especially around my two favorite holidays, Halloween and Christmas, so I am always easily identifiable in the hallways (my blue hair helps with this as well). I’m so excited to be starting this school year and I can’t wait to start having students in my classroom!
