Debra joined Rodeph Sholom School in 2021, bringing more than 20 years of experience teaching English and Social Studies to 5th through 8th graders at other New York independent schools. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in English from Binghamton University and a Master of Arts in Secondary Education from Adelphi University. What she treasures most about Rodeph Sholom School is the strong sense of community and the way new members are welcomed, making it a special place. Debra loves theater in all its forms—whether performing on stage, doing improv, directing, working backstage, or watching from the audience. She also enjoys reading, biking, music, games of all sorts, and spending time with her two children, her husband, and her dogs.
