Yay, you're here! Welcome to second grade!

My name is Jane O'Rourke and this will be my second year at Royal Oaks and my third year in 2nd grade. I graduated from James Madison University with a degree in Early Childhood Education and taught 3rd grade in a neighboring district for 6 years before taking time to stay home with my children. I returned to the classroom in 2019 and am so happy to have found my home at ROSA! 

I am originally from southern Virginia and moved to Charlotte right after graduating college. I now live in Concord with my husband (Patrick), our children (Camden and Finley), and our two cats (Charlie and Lola). I love reading, camping and hiking with my family, and spending time with loved ones. 

I am so excited to spend the year as we grow and learn through incorporating the Arts!
