About
The LEAP (Leadership, Education and Partnership) Academy University Charter School (“LEAP” or the “School”) is a comprehensive K-12 public charter school serving students in Camden City, NJ. The School focuses on providing a college preparatory education with an emphasis on the content areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (“STEM”).
The Upper Elementary serves students from grades 4th through 6th and has a focus on strengthening literacy and math skills for all students. Unlike many other schools, our school adopted a departmentalized educational model for the 4th - 6th grades to ensure that mathematics and the sciences are taught by a content expert. The focus is on placing content specific teachers in assignments that are consistent with their expertise and academic training.

Supervisor of World Languages
As a Spanish teacher and simultaneous bilingual, I understand the power of literacy as it occurs in what are typically referred to as heritage languages. Through the effective teaching of these languages, I believe, students, schools, and communities can come together to create educational communities that service young bilingual and bicultural students responsibly. In addition to teaching, I am currently completing a doctorate in reading, writing, and literacy at the University of Pennsylvania.
