Mrs. Matera is so excited to for her second year teaching fourth grade. This is her seventh year with the county. She grew up in Maryland and currently lives in Adamstown, MD. She graduated from Kalamazoo College with a B.A. in Psychology. She later earned her M.A.T. Elementary Education from Liberty University. In May of 2019 she graduated from Mason Univeristy with an MEd. in Digitally Designing Learning In Schools. 

She loves to take her Beagle for long walks around the neighborhood. She also has a cat that demands a lot of attention. In her spare time she enjoys attending live music concerts and camping.

She is looking forward to a positively wonderful year!
