My name is Lisa Traphagen. I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree from Georgian Court University and a Master’s Degree in Special Education from New Jersey City University. I have been teaching 17 years. This is my 6th year at CES and my first year teaching First Grade!
I am married with two boys. Outside of the classroom I love spending time with my family. We enjoy going to Disney World, the beach, Lake Murray, and visiting friends and family.
My goal is to create a fun and safe learning environment for my 1st grade class family. I enjoy building relationships with my students and watching them learn and grow. Thank you for sharing your children with me.
