This spring, Elroy Elementary School
welcomed six student teachers from
Duquesne University. Ms. Mallory
Accamando (third grade), Ms. Caroline
Connors (first grade), Ms. Jamie Niemiec
(first grade), Ms. Caroline Plante (first
grade), and Ms. Jessica Walker (second
grade) joined Elroy teachers starting in
January. They all completed their student
teaching in April. Ms. Danielle Wenger (second grade) joined Elroy in March after completing part of her
student teaching abroad in Ireland. She will remain until June. The student teachers worked very hard
alongside their cooperating teachers to plan and deliver instruction, differentiate lessons, and create
exciting learning experiences! They used research to bring and incorporate new teaching techniques.
All student teachers have made plans to return for special school events at the end of the year. The Elroy
teachers and students were excited to have these excellent teacher candidates join them this spring. Elroy
was fortunate to have such enthusiastic student teachers that brought new learning and teaching ideas to
our teachers and students. We wish them lots of luck in their future teaching careers.
