Meet Ms. Steward

My name is Leah Steward and I am thrilled to be at Samuel Mickle! This is my first year at Samuel Mickle, but I have been in education for much longer. I earned my undergraduate degree from Montclair State University (1995) and my Master's degree in Reading from Rowan. I have three children with my youngest heading off to Rutgers Camden! I love Philly sports, especially Eagles football. I do love the Flyers too, but they really need to get it together! :)

I enjoy reading, baking, walking, and a good cup of coffee. I love spending time with my friends and family. I love the holidays and one good snowfall in the winter. 

Some fun facts- My favorite color is blue. My favorite Disney character is Belle (She loves reading!) My favorite season is fall and my favorite dessert is ice cream. 

I am truly looking forward to working with my students this year. I will provide additional Literacy support in a small group setting.I will work closely with you and your child's classroom teacher to target the areas of need for each learner.
