Meet Mrs. Morton

About Mrs. Morton!

Let me begin by expressing my excitement with the upcoming year! I am thrilled to be a part of the Gladys Speers Community, and can’t wait to begin an engaging learning adventure teaching Grade 1! I am very excited to be teaching Grade 1 at Gladys Speers. Gladys Speers has been my home for the past seven years, teaching Kindergarten and the primary grades. I live in Burlington with my husband and our son James who is five years old and our daughter Paige who will be turning two on December 14th.

I completed my undergraduate degree in Child and Youth Studies at Brock University as well as my Bachelor of Education. I have also worked as a Special Needs Support worker working with children with Autism. In my free time I enjoy reading, swimming, and spending time with friends and family. I have a strong passion to educate young minds and help them blossom into well-rounded, responsible, and successful individuals. We are in for a memorable year!!!!!
