I attended California State University, Chico on the west coast were I am from! I was in the graduating class of 2015 when I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education. I completed this degree in three years instead of the traditional four. In addition to my BA, I completed an additional year of Grad School to obtain a Teaching Certificate.
I started my teaching career in Brunswick County as a kindergarten teacher in 2017 for three years. Then , in 2020, I transferred to Cape Fear Elementary to teach second grade for two years. Since 2022, I have been in first grade where my heart belongs!
I am a newly wed to my loving husband Ben. We have a humble home in Wilminton with two kitties. We do not have a dog yet, but surely will in the future!
My family moved cross country together in 2017 and Ben's family is uniquely local to Wilmington. Therefore, we are so lucky we do not have to travel for holidays!! Big Score!!
I am lucky enought to be in a family with a long line of teachers. When my gradparents immigrated from Switzerland they left behind generations of teachers who are in the school system. As luck has it, my mother in law is also a teacher in New Hanover County Schools.
I will try out my married name , Mrs. Lancaster, starting in August 2023!
I love to go to the beach during the summer! A few of my favorite things include coffee, earl grey tea, popcorn, sweet tea, goldfish, peanutbutter cups, and candles!!
