Teresa Carlson
Montesano
Summary
My past work experience in the field of physical therapy, including working with students and youngsters both in and out of the clinic, has provided me with a broad base of skills that translate to those skills necessary to successfully facilitate the educational process of today's students.
During the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 school years I have volunteered at at Montesano Junior High School with the primary purpose of facilitating the eduction of my special needs grandson. Over time I have assisted other special needs students at the same time and this has greatly enhanced my grandson's education and I believe it has been helpful to the other students as well.
I am committed to facilitating my grandson's education and any others that may benefit. I have proven that I am reliable and dependent over the last two years.
I desire to obtain some type of official status with Montesano Jr. Sr. High School vs. volunteer status. This would help to establish my place as a member of the staff and make for more effective communication between me, staff and students.
I am hoping for part time employment as a paraeducator or emergency teacher certification status. I have no expectations for minimum hours or pay.
Thank you for your consideration and thank you for the privilege of working with the students of MSD over many many years.
