My name is Michelle Lajara (formerly Ms. Acevedo). This is my tenth year in working with the Carteret District. I'm very excited to be joining the Middle School team. I have had the pleasure of teaching math, science and social studies to amazing fourth and fifth grade students. I graduated from Kean University with a Bachelors in Education. I am certified to teach Elementary School Grades K-6 and I am highly qualified to teach Mathematics in grades 5-8.
Some of my favorite things are:
