Hello! My name is Lisa Flanagan, and I am a Kindergarten teacher at Patriots STEM Elementary School. Welcome to the 2020-2021 Bird class! Our classroom is mostly decorated with cute little birdies but you'll quickly learn I have an affinity for flamingos! 

I grew up in Connecticut and graduated from Central Connecticut State University with a Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education. I attained my Masters in Reading Education from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Prior to coming to Patriots, I taught 10 years at Coltrane-Webb Elementary and helped launch the STEM program in the county. This is my 18th year teaching.

I have 3 children; my eldest son is a Marine, my daughter is in the US Air Force and my younger son is a 3rd grader here at Patriots. I enjoy reading, seeing theater productions, baking and entertaining. My husband and I also love to try new foods! 

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please let me know right away. This year promises to be different than most. Please know I am here to help the year go as smoothly as possible. Thank you for your support!

Mrs. Flanagan
