My name is Colleen Starke and I am so excited to be a 5th grade special education teacher at Reading Fleming Intermediate School! This is my 12th year as an educator and 5th year at RFIS. I am certified in elementary and special education. I earned my M. Ed. in Literacy Instruction with a NJ Reading Specialist certification and Supervisor endorsement. Along with some FRSD special educators, I completed practicum coursework to be credited as a Wilson® Dyslexia Practitioner. Reading books, spending time outside, and running with my dog are some of my favorite activities. I'm looking forward to a great year of learning and fun!
