Paige rafferty, Assistant Teacher - Baby program

Paige joined FCS in the summer of 2023 as Assistant Teacher to the baby program. She graduated from CSUMB with a BA in Liberal Studies with an emphasis in literature, coursework in sustainability practices, and a teaching credential. During her undergrad, she published my research on Incorporating Environmental Sustainability Practices in Elementary Schools based off of Waldorf education. After college Paige taught kindergarten and special education then fell in love with experiential education, backcountry youth expeditions, and surf instructions, and used outdoor settings to teach students the wonders of science, environmental ethics, and native restoration. Paige had the privilege to teach all over the country and seasonally through outdoor education. Recently she moved from the east coast to Seattle and loves exploring our forests, mountains, and loves the beach.
