Welcome to Ms. Heagerty's Classes

Before teaching, I worked with the Chester County Health department monitoring environmental conditions and with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in their infectious disease department.  In the summer of 2022, I worked with Berks Nature in Reading as a teacher with their Eco-Camp.  Some non-related jobs I have had in the past that definitely play a role in who I am: book store employee and day care teacher (1 - 3 year olds).

I grew up in Norristown, Pennsylvania, a fairly urbanized borough in Montgomery County.  I am the youngest of nine and have  15 nieces and nephews (I call them my niblings), 11 great-niblings, and 2 great-great nephews.  My only daughter has one daughter of her own.  She calls me Gamma because Gamma Rays are the most powerful form of radiation, and I am a science nerd.
