Susan Eberhart - Special Education Teacher
Nicole Knights - Special Education Teacher/Tutorial Coordinator
I have a B.A. in French and a B.S. in Elementary Education from the University of Maine. In the spring of 2022 I completed my M.Ed in Educational Policy, Leadership, and Organization with a concentration in Diversity and Equity in Education from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
Before coming to Aucocisco I taught French at Auburn Middle School for five years before transitioning as their Social Emotional Learning Interventionist. In that role, my focus was teaching students strategies on how to identify and cope with the non-academic aspects of their lives, while incorporating those lessons into their daily routine. It was this experience that helped bring me to Aucocisco and really appreciate the value of an inclusive education.
Heather Larrabee - Special Education Teacher
Kristen Lolatte - Special Education Teacher
I have a BA from Albertus Magnus College in New Haven, Connecticut, where I studied psychology and sociology. Within the past few years, I went on to do graduate work with the University of Maine specializing in autism spectrum disorders.
While I have come into the field of education later in life, I truly feel that it is my calling. I enjoy connecting with my students and really focusing on building strong relationships with them and meeting them where they are academically.
When not in the classroom, I am a published author and nature photographer, avid paddle boarder and kayaker, puppy wrangler, kindred to the seals and herbalist.
