Jennifer Lapp: Hi! I’m Jenny Lapp, and I’ve been with Rock View for 8 years as a special education teacher. This year, I’m thrilled to be working with Kindergarten and first grade! I have three children of my own, and I absolutely love the back-to-school season—there’s nothing like fresh school supplies, fall treats, and a good cup of coffee. I’m proud to be a Rock View Roadrunner and can’t wait for the new school year!
Katie Mahar (LC Intervention): I am a part-time special education teacher who provides intervention and support to our amazing students in the Learning Center. I have worked at Rock View ES for 11 years! I love helping children learn to read. On my free time, I devour fiction books and enjoy spending time with my family and our puppy outside.
Raelee Mangiacapra (Team Lead): Hi My name is Raelee Mangiacapra. This is my 8th year at Rock View and 10 years in the county as a Special Education Teacher. I have worked in the School Community Based, Learning Center and Home School Model special education programs.
