Peer Assisted Learning Support

PALS-

Welcome to the PALS website. 5th grade students volunteer once a week during recess to help students with disabilities . I have enjoyed watching this program grow at Olive Chapel. Each year, my students make friends throughout the school. They are so excited to walk down the hall and be included in the school community.

Megan Coles- ECS 2 Teacher

I have been working at OCE since 2014. I live with my husband, son (DW) and 2 cats, Slappy and Julio. I love running, traveling to new places, going to the beach, and visiting family that still live in PA. I am one of six children, so there are lots of family members to see and visit!

Maria Kriegel - ECS 1 Teacher

This is my first year at OCE and I am thrilled to be here! Before coming to OCE I worked at a middle school as an ECS 3 teacher. I am originally from Illinois and have been living in North Carolina for the past 10 years. I have a dog named, Becca. I love going to concerts, working out, the beach, and hiking at National Parks. I am a huge sports fan!
