Hello, my name is Cara Zimmerman and I am a First Grade teacher at Orchard Hill Elementary School! I am so grateful to have what I believe is the best job in the world. I am excited to work with you and get to know each and every one of you!

I competed in the Penn Relays twice. My event was the 4x400 relay. I also competed at the New York Armory indoor track and field championships in the 400 meter and the 4x400 meter relay. In college, I traveled to compete in many track meets. One of the Track meets was at Yale University! I have also completed two half marathons.
