Cooperating Teacher Application:
I am so excited to be returning to Rising Hawk Summer Camp after a great school year! I run Rising Hawk Afterschool during the school year and am also the classroom naturalist at Live & Learn. This will be my sixth year at afterschool and my fifth as Director. I am a certified Nature-Based Educator and avid forest walker. I absolutely love being outdoors with children and stoking their wonder for the natural world. I am also an artist and love to share different ways of creating with children. When I am not in the woods with kids, I am typically gardening, swimming in rivers, smelling flowers, and laughing with friends. I’m excited for another Summer with you all!
Hello! My name is Liz. I have been at Live and Learn and Rising Hawk for two years and have been working at summer camps and schools for seven years. When I am not at school, I am an avid reader, love to explore the area in my kayak and spend time outside. I also do historical reenactment and historical fencing on the weekends.
Hello, I’m Anya! I’m wicked excited to be a part of this year’s summer camp again. During the school year, I played along with the preschool and toddler classrooms here at Live & Learn, along with Rising Hawk Before School. I love reading to get away to far off places to give me new perspectives. This year, I’m hoping to get out and see more of the wide, beautiful world through traveling - mainly to Cape Cod to see some sharks. I love being outside, and look forward to a wonderful summer. Can’t wait to see you all soon!
Hi! I’m Mike, and I’ve been a long time summer camp teacher at Rising Hawk! This school year I taught 5th grade at a charter school in Nashua, NH, and will be returning there after the summer. Before that, I spent two years teaching English in Spain, which was a wonderful experience. I enjoy being outdoors, playing sports, and having fun! I’m looking forward to meeting everyone and having a great summer!
Hi, RH families!
My name is Eliza Wheeler and this will be my second year as a counselor with the camp kiddos. I am currently attending Thomas College where I am pursuing a bachelor's degree in criminal justice-conservation law enforcement with a minor in environmental science. My favorite games to play at camp are Drip, Drip, Drop and Hawk on the Hunt. When I’m not at camp, I love to kayak and hike. I can’t wait to spend the summer with your amazing kids!
Hi, I'm Nic! This will be my fourth summer at Rising Hawk Summer Camp. I am a finance major at UNH. When I'm at camp, I love to build and play games with the kids. In my free time, I like to go to the gym and hang out with friends. I'm excited to spend another great summer at camp with everyone!
You'll meet more fun, friendly teachers and counselors at Rising Hawk!
We'll see you there!
