Maureen has had the privilege of being an educator for the past twenty years. Her experience has been in various grades, both here in Southeast Virginia and in Denver, Colorado. Maureen earned a Masters degree in Early Childhood Education from ODU, a Masters degree in Education: Cultural and Linguistic Diversity from the University of Colorado, Boulder, and also achieved National Board Certification. Despite her formal education, what she says fulfills her the most is supporting students under her care to grow to realize their self-worth, to appreciate their own contributions along with their peers, and to understand that they are valued members of our school community. She looks forward to seeing you and making your acquaintance.
