Jason DiCarlo -

My name is Jason DiCarlo. I am a third grade teacher at the McAvinnue School in Lowell. This is my fifth year teaching. I taught fourth grade for the past four years and I am currently teaching third grade.

I received my undergraduate degree from Salem State in Elementary Education, and recently received my mater's degree from Salem State in Educational Leadership.

I enjoy teaching. It is such a great feeling when you reflect on the day and you say to yourself, "Wow! This day couldn't have been any better. My lessons were well planned and the children were engaged and learning."

It is extremely rewarding to see children grow academically and socially while in your classroom.
