Mrs. Amelia Marlor

Hello families!

My name is Amelia Marlor, and I am thrilled to be your child's English Language Arts teacher this year! Harrisburg Elementary is a wonderful place to be, and I am excited to be back after spending a few years at home with my little ones. This is my twelfth year here at HES, where I have previously taught third grade, fifth grade, and Kindergarten. My family lives here in Harrisburg and both of my children attend school here at HES as well! We love our growing town and may have met a few of you already at the dance studio or the soccer fields!

I earned my Bachelor's degree in elementary education from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and later returned to earn a Master's degree in elementary education with a concentration in reading instruction. Kindergarten and first grade are such critical years for building a strong foundation in literacy; by learning to read, children are stepping into a new world of possibilities that will carry them through the rest of their lives. It is both a joy and an honor to be part of such an exciting process!

I am looking forward to working with the Mandarin teachers and our Kindergarten and first grade teams to integrate English language arts into each school day. I hope to partner with you to make this an amazing year for your child!
