Sandra Manzella

Sandra Manzella is originally from Long Island, NY, and moved with her family to Syracuse NY during her high school years. She received her Bachelors of Fine Arts Degree, with a Certification in Art Education (K- 12), at West Virginia University. After graduating, Sandy spent time as a substitute teacher for the Syracuse City School District, and in 2005 she moved to Boston to pursue a Master’s Degree in Special Education. While completing her degree at Cambridge College, Sandra developed her teaching skills as a paraprofessional for the LABBB Collaborative. Once she completed her Master’s Degree and became licensed in Special Education with Moderate Disabilities, Sandra worked as a classroom teacher with the LABBB Collaborative. Although she loved working with the students at the Collaborative, Sandra decided to expand her experience and worked as a Special Education teacher and liaison in the Belmont Public School District. Sandra is a dedicated teacher who is looking forward to working directly with the students and their families, in addition to the staff and administration at the Conservatory Lab Charter School.
