Allison (Schaeffer) McQueen-Classroom and Curricular Administrator
Allison grew up near Winterplace Ski Resort in Ghent, West Virginia, and earned a degree in Elementary Education at Concord College in Athens, WV. Her first decade of teaching was in Georgia, where she taught for 11 years at the Kindergarten, 3rd grade, and 5th grade levels. In that time, Allison was awarded Teacher of the Year in 2013 and a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) certification. She was also chosen to be a part of the Teacher Leader program for Coweta County, GA.
Allison became interested in Montessori education when she observed family members attend and graduate from Montessori programs in Atlanta. Now very happily back in West Virginia, Allison has joined NRGLC for her 12th year as an elementary instructor. And now serves as the school’s classroom and curricular advisor. She believes in the power of education and loves helping create thoughtful, aware children who will grow up to make our community and world a better place. When she is not at NRGLC you can find Allison hiking, skiing, rafting, and traveling.
