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 fourth 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!

Heleniak

Hello Lowes Island Families!

My name is Emily Heleniak, and I'm so excited to be teaching fourth grade again this year! I grew up in Philadelphia and earned my master's degree in education from Drexel University. I've been working in education since 2005, and I've had the pleasure of teaching in three different states with experience in grades 1-5. My husband and I live right here in the Lowes Island community, and our three daughters all attended Lowes Island Elementary and loved their time here. It is truly a special place. When I'm not at school, you can find me coaching lacrosse, traveling with my family, or relaxing with a good book.

I am looking forward to working with my students and families to create a classroom that values everyone, encourages thinking out loud, and takes time to laugh.

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!
