Today, we'd like to introduce you to McConnellsville first grade teacher Montana Sochia!
Sochia, a native of Rome, graduated from Grand Canyon University.
Her favorite part about working at Camden is the support she has gotten from her fellow staff members.
“I have loved meeting all of the staff within my building,” Sochia said. “Everybody is so helpful and willing to lend a hand.”
A multi-sport athlete in her high school days at RFA, Sochia stays on the field by participating in slow pitch softball and field hockey when she's not teaching!


McConnellsville Families: Picture day will be here before you know it! Take a moment to review the information sheet that Mrs. Allen just sent via ParentSquare!


Introducing..... McConnellsville kindergarten teacher Emily Wood!
Emily is a graduate of the College of St. Rose. Her favorite thing about being an educator is watching her students become their own person.

When she’s not teaching, you can find her hiking, taking her dog Goob on adventures, and solving puzzles!
