• All About Mrs. Snell

    I am so excited to be teaching at the Horbelt School again this year!  Before coming to Horbelt, I previously taught 3-5 MD at CSCS, Grade 3 Inclusion at JTDS, and Basic Skills at CSCS.  I student taught at the Collins School in 4th grade in 2007, and then covered various maternity leaves at the middle school and Collins school before I was hired as a certified teacher in the district in January 2012.  

    I graduated from Georgian Court University where I 
    received my BA in English, and became certified to teach K-5 Elementary Education, 5-8 Science and Language Arts, and Special Education.  I earned my Master's Degree from Georgian Court in Special Education, with a certification in Autism.  Teaching is my passion, and it makes me so happy to wake up each day and be able to do what I love to do.

    I am looking forward to learning all about you, and having a wonderful year!
