Mrs. Carola McWhorter

   My name is Carola McWhorter and I have been teaching at Cardinal Ridge ES since 2014.  I have been a fourth grade teacher for the first three years, and then became one of the English Learner (EL) teachers here. Prior to working at CRE, I worked as a preschool and kindergarten teacher, and a German teacher at a high school in Prince William County. 
   In 2009, I completed my BA degree in Interdisciplinary Studies at Western Governors University and earned my M.Ed. at George Mason University in 2018. 
   I am originally from Germany and was raised in a small city close to Wiesbaden. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our twin boys, our daughter, and our labrador Maya. I love traveling, reading, arts and spending time outdoors. 
   I am looking forward to another incredible year at Cardinal Ridge!
