My name is Karen Watts and I am the 3rd and 4th grade Special Education Teacher at Independence Elementary School.
I received my bachelor's degree in Education from Duquesne University and have dual certification in both Special and Elementary Education.
For 8 years prior to coming to Hopewell, I taught at Allegheny Valley School and McGuire Memorial.
I have been teaching at Independence Elementary for the past 20 years and after all this time I still I couldn't imagine a better place to be!
