I earned my Elementary Education degree from Millersville University in 2007.  In 2015 I earned my Master's Degree in Instructional Technology from Wilkes University. This will be my 14th year teaching.  I taught 4th grade in Derry Township for one year as a long-term substitute.  Then I taught at Sylvan Heights Science Charter School for nine years - three years in 2nd grade, five years in 4th grade, and one year in 3rd grade. This is my fourth year teaching 5th-Grade at Steelton-Highspire Elementary school.  

I have been married for 25 years and have three children, two dogs, and one snake.  This summer there were many changes in the Donnelly family!  My daughter made me a Grandma, one son changed his career, and the other son shipped off to Basic Training for the United States Air Force.
