Miss Rebecca Myers
Education Background:
I graduated from River Dell High School back in 2012. After high school, I attended Montclair State University in Montclair, New Jersey, wherein 2016; I obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Family and Child Studies in a School Setting. I remained at Montclair State University and received a Master's Degree in Teaching in 2018. I am currently certified to teach Preschool - 3rd, Kindergarten - 5th, as well as Students with Disabilities (K - 12).
Professional Background:
I began my journey as a teacher during high school and college. I was lucky enough to work as a student-teacher within a special education pre-school class, an inclusion preschool class, a general education kindergarten, and a resource room where I worked with students from 2nd - 5th. New Milford Public School District is where I found my first teaching position, and I have worked here over a year as a 4th and 5th-grade special education teacher in the IBC (Inner Bridge Crossing) Program.
Personal Background:
I currently live in the area with my fiance Dan but grew up only one town over in River Edge, where the rest of my family still resides - including my lovely lab, Sandy! On most weekends, you can find me with family and friends enjoying their company, maybe catching a New Jersey Devils game at The Prudential Center. During my downtime, I love staying active, cooking, photography, reading, and traveling; most recently, I visited Greece!
