Hi, I'm Ms. Karli and I'm so happy you're going to be in the Lowes Island family. 

 I'm begin my tenth year of teaching preschool special education. I'm excited to be teaching a full class of two-year olds and teaching them the joy of school.  This school year we will have so much fun learning and growing! 

I graduated from George Mason University with a B.A. in Integrative Studies and a concentration in Child and Family Studies. I also minored in Early Childhood for Diverse Learners. I received my master's from George Mason University in Curriculum and Instruction with a concentration in Early Childhood for Diverse Learners and a license in Early Childhood Special Education. Before working in Loudoun County, I was an assistant for Fairfax County Public Schools for three years in an autism program and in a special education preschool. 

I grew up and went to Loudoun County Public Schools. I have four dogs and love cuddling with them. In my free time I enjoy spending time with family and friends.
