ABOUT ME

My name is Erica Cross, and I teach Life Skills for students in grades 9–12+. I have lived in Bucks County most of my life and graduated from Neshaminy High School in 2006. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Holy Family University in 2018 and went on to complete my Master of Education in 2021. I also hold a certification in Special Education K–12. I began my career in 2018 as a classroom assistant in the Bensalem School District while finishing my degree in education.  This is my fourth year teaching at MaST, and I absolutely love the strong bond I have built with the staff, students, and families. I am passionate about helping my students build independence, confidence, and real-world skills that will support their success both in and out of the classroom.

I am a proud mom of two amazing kids. My son, Aidan, is 17 years old and a senior at Bensalem High School. He’s a talented athlete, excelling in both football and basketball, and has recently committed to Lehigh Valley University. My daughter, Aubrey, is 7 years old and just started second grade. She’s already proving to be another incredible athlete with passions for dance, basketball, and swim. My husband and I have been together for over 13 years, and our family wouldn’t be complete without our pets—I’m a true animal lover with five cats, two dogs, and even a bearded dragon! Fall is my favorite season, and Halloween is by far my favorite holiday.
