Hello, my name is Sara Lechner. This is my fifth year teaching 2nd grade! I graduated from Elizabethtown College in May 2021 with my Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education with a concentration in Special Education. Throughout my time at Elizabethtown College, I had a wide variety of teaching experiences that allowed me to grow into the educator I am today. I have had experience teaching in grades Pre-K-3, as well as a substitute teaching experience in 4th grade. I have also taught in a number of special education settings, such as Learning Support and Autism Support in a variety of schools. Much of my teaching experience took place in schools that surround the Elizabethtown area, however, I was born and raised in the Lehigh Valley. I graduated from Northampton High School in 2017, before heading off to college. I currently live in Center Valley, PA. In December 2025, I graduated from Bloomsburg University with my Masters in Instructional Design and Technology and I have a Technology Specialist certification.

When I am not in the classroom, I enjoy exercise classes, shopping, cooking, taking the pups for walks, and spending time with friends and family. My fiancé and I have been spending a lot of time planning our July 2026 wedding!

I have always loved working with children and watching them grow. As your child's teacher, I am inspired to create a classroom community rooted in exploration, collaboration, creativity, diversity, and engagement. I will ensure the safety and security of your child each and every day they walk into my classroom. All students will be treated with respect, acceptance, and kindness, and I will expect the same in return from them.
