Fourth Grade

Hello Lowes Island families! My name is McKenna DeMonte and I am so excited to be teaching 4th grade! This will be my third year at Lowes Island, and I love being a part of this great community. I am a graduate of Loudoun County Public Schools and I am so happy to give back to such a wonderful county that helped me on my journey to becoming your child’s teacher!
I graduated from James Madison University with both a Bachelors of Science and a Masters of Arts in Teaching. Go Dukes!
I am looking forward to meeting you all and working together to create a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where learning, smiles, and relationships flourish!

My name is Emily Heleniak. This will be my first year in 4th grade at Lowes Island Elementary. I grew up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and earned my Masters Degree in Education from Drexel University. I have been in education since 2005, and have taught in three different states and in four different elementary schools. I live in the Lowes Island community with my husband and three daughters. My two older daughters, Grace and Brooke, are former Lowes Island Leopards, and now attend Dominion HS and Seneca Ridge MS. My youngest daughter, Caroline, is in 5th grade this year. When I'm not at school, you will find me coaching lacrosse, traveling with my family, camping, or relaxing with a good book.
Alex Scott

Hello everyone! My name is Alex Scott and I am very excited to be joining the fourth grade team this year at Lowes Island! One thing that will quickly become clear about me is that I am a Double Duke! I earned both my undergraduate degree and Masters in the Arts of Teaching from James Madison University. I am a graduate of Loudoun County Public Schools, so I am very happy to be back for another year at Lowes Island. When not at school, I love spending time with my wife, family, and friends or playing games. I am looking forward to being your child’s teacher!
