It's great to be back!  I am a returning teacher to Loudoun County.  I started my career here some years ago after graduating from The Pennsylvania State University with a degree in Special Education.  I taught at Emerick Elementary for nine years before leaving to be home with my son.  During that time I lived in Massachusetts and also Pennsylvania where I had some experience as a Resource Teacher in the private school setting. Loudoun County has changed a great deal since I've been gone, but Emerick is still a wonderful school.
