Hello! My name is Stephanie Boschen. I am very excited about teaching 3rd grade magnet at Fountaindale. This will be my 17th year of teaching, and my 9th year at Fountaindale. My experience at Fountaindale has been as both a teacher and a parent. Both of my children are former Fountaindale magnet students, and have continued on in magnet middle schools in the county.
I have previously taught Kindergarten, fourth and fifth grade, as well as been an enrichment teacher. I have undergraduate degrees in music and English from Virginia Teach, and received my MAT from Salem College. While living in North Carolina, I took additional coursework in gifted learners and taught a 4th grade gifted class. I am currently renewing my gifted education certification to be certified by the state of Maryland.
I look forward to getting to know the students and families in our class. I do believe that it is OUR classroom, and that the students will be an important part of our classroom environment. Students will continue to use technology in a variety of ways as they learn and share their learning. The students will also have the opportunity to work on individual goals and to develop their problem solving skills during the year.
