Welcoming New Associate Teachers

September 8, 2023

Join us in welcoming our 2023-2024 Associate Teacher Program (ATP) cohort! Our five new associates have been on campus since last week, participating in orientation, faculty meetings, and classroom set-up and planning with their mentor teachers. This fall, associates will be working and learning in our early childhood, elementary, and middle school classrooms while earning a master’s in education degree and teaching license through our school’s partnership with Lesley University. We’re thrilled they’re here, and they look forward to their work with our students.

The associate teachers and their placements for the fall are (clockwise from top left in the photo):

  • Andrew Bolte (Vaniecia Skinner’s grade 5 classroom)
  • Madison Dick (Leigh Twarog’s grade 3 classroom)
  • Paige Maguire (Cicely Gibson’s grade 1 classroom)
  • Ian Hacker (Lana Holman’s grade 4 classroom)
  • Olivia Light (Nancy Fell’s grade 2 classroom)
