About Carissa

Hello! I am a licensed teacher with 10 years of experience working with students from preschool through middle school. My husband and I recently transferred to the area, and I am currently seeking a new teaching opportunity. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering meaningful student growth--academically, socially, and emotionally. I am passionate about creating a supportive and engaging teaching environment where students feel encouraged to take risks, develop confidence, and discover a love of learning. I believe every student has the ability to succeed, and I strive to meet them where they are while helping them reach their full potential!
