Sabrina Waldron - 9th and 10th grade English

Hello All,

My name is Sabrina Waldron and I’m excited about teaching 9th and 10th grade English this fall. I recently moved from Brooklyn, NY and I very happy to be back in the South (and out of a moving truck). I was born in New Jersey, grew up in South Florida and I’m a very proud graduate of the University of Florida – GO GATORS!

I’ve spent the last eight years in New York City where I earned a Master's of Comparative Literature from New York University and a Master's of Education from Brooklyn College. Before entering the field of education, I spent my professional career in New York working for an international foundation, several youth service organizations and a non-profit dedicated to revitalizing public libraries. For the past two years I worked at a wonderfully collaborative public school in Brooklyn where I taught 10th grade English.

In terms of hobbies, I’m a big foodie and a cook – I talk about food more than any normal human being should. I’m a sports-lover and traveler – I’ve been to Europe, the Caribbean (where my family is from) and visited South America for the first time last summer. This summer I’m staying in the States with trips to Sonoma and Lake Michigan. It almost goes without saying that I’m an avid reader, but I’m also an occasional DJ (records, turntables, and all).

I’m looking forward to exploring Atlanta with my boyfriend who relocated to Atlanta a year ago for work, and I’m also very excited about becoming a part of the Westminster faculty. I look forward to meeting all of you.

I'm Back From Florida

Hi Everyone,
Florida was wonderful - lots of time in the water, on the water, and on the dock!
It is really fun to see the posts that have appeared so far. I hope to see more in the near future. I will be in and out of the office now for the rest of the summer so call me if you need anything. Thad and I will meet tomorow to begin the transition.
We can help with the southern accent, Liesel. Eric, you should practice blogging with this opportunity (actually, this is my first and only blog :-) S.E. we are glad you won't have to travel to Charlotte now. Jennifer, you are such a traveler. Can't wait to hear all. Mecia, I am going to try to post a picture. If it works, I will let you know how I did it. Lee, a huge welcome to you - we will be so lucky to have you with our students. Jenica, long term sub is a really great way to get to know us and we are very grateful for your willingness to fill in.
Keep on resting and send news.
See you in August - some dates and a schedule will be sent probably by the first of August.
Sandra
