Meghan doesn’t have a favorite teacher because it was too hard to choose between all of the wonderful teachers at Handley Elementary School. Each of them approached their work with creativity, energy, and kindness.
Now, Meghan’s giving back to educators – she helps the Foundation’s program team ensure that schools, educators, and students get the support they need through the Foundation’s work. She manages the Student Success and Learning & Leadership grants, the Awards for Teaching Excellence, and the STEM district grants.
Before coming to the Foundation, Meghan worked to build opportunities for community engagement in public schools. She was inspired by resourceful, collaborative, and dedicated individuals who recognize the potential of all students. She believes that supporting and empowering teachers leads to student success, and her work at the Foundation gives her the opportunity to build that support and empowerment.
Meghan enjoys a healthy serving of fruit in her diet. Though she has no desire to live in the Greek Underworld, she likes to relax by meticulously disassembling pomegranates.
