I'm so glad you're here!

~ Ms. Farrell ~

I am a Special Education Teacher at Murphy Elementary in my 25th year of teaching and learning in Haslett!  I earned a Master of Science in Special Education from Johns Hopkins University and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Kalamazoo College.  Prior to becoming a teacher, I was a Clinical Specialist at the Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore.

I am passionate about helping young learners understand how much they truly can do.  Strengthening personal responsibility within each child's ability level is at the heart of my program.  I believe that every child has a unique capacity to become a successful, independent, life-long learner, and I promise to do whatever I can to facilitate this growth.  We will have a fantastic year together!
