Meet Mrs. Meyer

I always knew I was meant to be a teacher...

In 1999, I graduated from Temple University, where I earned my degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. Upon graduation, I taught second and fifth grades in Abington School District for about three years.

In 2002, my husband (Mr. Meyer) and I moved to Phnom Penh, Cambodia, on the other side of the world for the next five years. I relocated to Cambodia to create a pre-school program in an orphanage. I also developed various skills training programs for older orphans and others in the community. However, my pride and joy from my work in Cambodia is the bilingual school I founded with a team of educators who had a similar vision of wanting to improve education for Cambodian children.

We returned from Cambodia in 2007, and I taught first grade for the School District of Cheltenham Township.

I was hired by the School District of Springfield Township in the summer of 2008. I just completed my eleventh year teaching fourth grade, and I love it! I especially enjoy teaching my students how to be global thinkers and fact-finders so they can possess the skills necessary to learn anything their little hearts desire!

In May 2011, I completed my Masters of Arts in Education at Gratz College. I was a student speaker at commencement, where I emphasized the importance of building relationships with students in order to meet individual needs. I truly believe that the connection teachers have with their students maximizes learning. Can't wait to get to know the students in my 2019-2020 class!
