Brief Biography: “As a life-long learner with a passion for science and nature, I discovered teaching as a way to share my interests with others,” says Mrs. Tope. “As a mom of a student with special needs, I have a heart for students who require an individualized education, and so does PALCS. My colleagues and I have been given the freedom, time, and resources to provide a truly individualized program to our students. It is my great pleasure to serve our students and their families here in my town, county, and across my home state.”
