Hi, my name is Rebecca Van Aken. I am excited to be joining the SES team as the reading specialist! This is my tenth year of teaching in Queen Anne’s County, where I previously taught first grade at Centreville Elementary. Originally, I am from Northeastern Pennsylvania. I graduated from Muhlenberg College and received my Master’s degree from the University of Pennsylvania. I earned my national certification in the area of Reading-Language Arts. Outside of school, I enjoy acting and leading a drama camp at Church Hill Theatre, going to the beach and spending time with my family and friends. I’m looking forward to a wonderful year at SES!
