About Me

I am Janice Lu. I am very excited to get to know you and your child this year and to work together to help your child be successful in the classroom!

I have a BA in English Literature from Fu-Jen Catholic University in Taiwan, an MBA from Washington University in St. Louis and a master degree in teaching from NCSU.

I taught at middle schools in Taiwan before I came to the States to obtain my MBA degree. I then worked in marketing for Johnson & Johnson in Taiwan. After getting married, I moved back to the States and got my master of art in teaching degree from NCSU. I started teaching at Wake County Public School System in 2014. I live in Apex with my husband and daughter (12th grade in Green Level High School).

I believe that each child is created special and deserves the very best education possible. It is my job to meet the needs of every student in the classroom, including both academic needs and social/emotional needs. I set high expectations for my students because I know they will grow to meet these expectations. I also believe that learning should be fun. Therefore, much of the learning will be through hands on experiences and working with their peers. Your child will learn through doing, seeing, tasting, hearing and trying new things. We will have a lot of fun each day!
