Ms. Kristel Gallagher
My name is Ms. Kristel Gallagher. This is my third year in the Manville School District and I am extremely grateful to be part of such a wonderful family. I am very excited to continue my career in Manville as a second grade inclusion teacher at Weston School.
I was born and raised in Mendham, NJ and graduated from West Morris Mendham High School in 2014. I attended Rider University where I majored in Elementary Education and Psychology and minored in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. I graduated in 2018 with my certifications in Elementry Education (K-6), Early Childhood Education (P-3), and Special Education. I began my teaching career in the Clinton Township School District where I taught as a first grade general education teacher in an inclusion classroom. I then went on to teach here in Manville. I spent two years teaching in a second grade inclusion classroom as the special educations teacher. I am a lifelong learner and I believe that it is is exteremly important to keep myself up to date on the best practices in the field of education.
Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, being the Director of the Summer Camp in my town, reading, watching Netflix, doing DIY projects around my house, walking my two dogs (Drake and Dakota) and cleaning! I am looking forward to continuing my educational adventure in such an amazing community!
