Mrs. Kapner
Hello everyone! My name is Mrs. Kapner and I am really excited for this upcoming year! I received my B.A. in English and Elementary Education from the University of Colorado in Boulder, my M.A. in Reading from Montclair State University, and my MSEd in Special Education from Monmouth University. When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my husband, two boys, and dog. I am committed to making this year one of excitement, growth, and opportunity!
