Hello, I'm Mrs. Douty!
Teaching is an absolute passion of mine! I am so excited to work with you and your child this school year. It’s going to be a year full of fun, learning, and adventure. I can’t wait to see what this year has in store for us. I thought you might like to know a little bit about me.
I am a 2007 Bellefonte Area School District alumni! After graduating high school, I attended Lock Haven University where I I graduated in the spring of 2011 with a dual degree in elementary education and special education. More recently, I graduated from Wilkes University in the spring of 2015 with a Master’s Degree as a PA reading specialist. I love to learn, and I'm constantly seeking opportunities to improve both in and out of the classroom.I am married to my husband, Adam. We have been happily married for four years now. We live in Zion with our beagle, Lucy. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking/baking, reading, running, hiking, and traveling.This will be my first year teaching at Marion-Walker Elementary school, and I am so excited for my new role as the 4/5 learning support teacher! Prior to being hired with the Bellefonte School District, I was a 5th grade learning support teacher with the Mifflin County School District for the last four years.As a learning support teacher, I will be providing both push-in and pull-out services to students on my caseload. When I’m in the regular education classroom, the regular education teacher and I will be co-teaching together; sharing the teaching responsibility and providing additional teaching opportunities and enrichment activities when needed to all students.It is my passion to instill a love of learning in each student I work with. I attempt to teach with a passion so my students will develop into life-long learners. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to keep communication open between us, and I would love to talk to you whenever you feel the need. I look forward to a great year!Name: Mrs. Megan M.
