My name is Maria and I am 31 years old. I have been an Intervention Specialist for 2 years at Groveport Madison Middle School South. I graduated from Ohio State University and am currently working on my Masters degree. My bachelors is in working with students with "moderate to intensive" needs, however, my classroom is Cross Categorical and I work with students wide ranging needs. I LOVE working with children with exceptionalities. My passions are inclusion and relationship building. My son attended his pre-k as a peer model. This fostered his love for diversity and inclusion as well, which brings me great joy. I am looking to create a strong bond with your family. I would love to spend time with children with exceptionalities out of school this summer and create a fun setting, as well as help your child work towards any goals they are striving towards. Life is full of learning opportunities and I hope to play, discover, and explore them with your child!
