Meet Karen Miscavage from Royersford, Pa. She is an instructor in the education department. Miscavage always wanted to be a teacher, dating back to her childhood days playing school with her neighbors.
Prior to Cabrini, Miscavage taught at Springford High School as a full-time teacher in a learning support classroom. She was an adjunct at Cabrini for four years working in the education department with student teachers. After teaching in elementary and high school, she figured Cabrini would be the next step.
Miscavage attended Cabrini as a graduate student, and fell in love with the campus as soon as she arrived. She first heard of Cabrini as a teacher’s assistant in a third and fourth grade learning support classroom. The head teacher of the class obtained her master’s degree from Cabrini. She discussed with Miscavage about finishing up with a master’s degree in special education as well. Miscavage gave it a shot.
While studying at Cabrini, Miscavage fell in love with the campus and the teachers who motivated and helped spark an interest. “I came from Kutztown where I was a number, not a name. Cabrini made me feel like a name.” When Cabrini had a job opening, Miscavage jumped on the opportunity and applied. “I Always thought this would be a really nice place to work.”
