Education & Experience:
Dana earned a Bachelor of Science from the University of Vermont and then went on to pursue a Master's Degree in Agriculture and Extension Education from NCSU and a Post Baccalaureate certificate in Middle School Science Education from Western Carolina University.
Teaching Philosophy:
Understanding is never complete, for we can always add more knowledge, another episode, refine an image or see new links between things we see.
Favorite thing about kids:
I love working with Middle School-aged students. I love their unique and honest perspectives, their ability to turn anything into a joke, and their genuine curiosity about the world around them. I am honored to support them through all of these experiences and the complicated nature of young adulthood.
Favorite thing about working at WBNS:
Staff, staff, staff, and the freedom to be creative and individualistic in my teaching. The campus is pretty darn sweet too!
