My name is Christine Pagán and I was born in a small town in western New York called Dunkirk. I went to SUNY Fredonia and graduated with my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education.  I moved to NC shortly after graduating in 1998 and have taught grades 1-6.  I went on to get my Masters Degree in Education at NC A&T through a cohort program.  After many years of teaching lower grades, I decided that 6th grade was worth a try and have loved it. I have taught 6th grade Science and Math along with coaching softball at the Middle School level. I also have my own business in skincare with Rodan+Fields.  This is my 20th year teaching and I'm glad to be at Albemarle Road Middle School.  I look forward to a great year!
