In addition, she was the Lead Teacher for the community specializing in therapeutic needs overseeing 7 classrooms and 35+ teachers, assistant teachers, and program aides. She also was part of the first pilot program for the use of iPads in the classroom and was part of the first published research in the area of iPads in education.
In 2013, Kathleen decided to expand her experiences to include more in the general education setting. She began a job as a Special Educator at the Tunbridge Charter School in Baltimore City. Her experiences included push-in and pull-out sessions with students from 2nd through 7th grade and overseeing the PreK-1st grade Special Educator, Lower and Middle School Self-Contained Special Educators.
