My name is Maura Glaeser, and I will be starting my first year of teaching this fall. I am honored to be starting my career at TJ; it is a great school with some of the best teachers I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. This year, I will be teaching 8th Grade Reading on Team Matrix. Reading has been my favorite hobby for as long as I can remember; when I was an eighth grader, it was pretty much all that I did. Therefore, I am elated to help my students develop their skills as well as their interest in reading. I hope you have all had a great summer, and I cannot wait to see you at Open House.
