Hello! My name is Alyssa Howarth and I am the 5th grade Special Education Resource Room teacher at KDM this year! This will be my tenth year teaching as a special education teacher and fourth year here at KDM. I graduated from Centenary University in 2013 with certifications in Elementary and Special Education, and later graduated from Centenary University in 2018 with my M.Ed. in Reading. In the spring of 2022, I also completed my coursework and am a certified Orton Gillingham teacher. I love implementing the knowledge, tools, and strategies learned from both my training and colleagues into my classroom!
Teaching has always been a passion of mine. I absolutely love working with my students and assisting them in reaching their goals! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns throughout the year.
