My name is Sara Fusco-Abbott, and I am so proud to be a Pre-K teacher at Carrington Academy at Windermere. I have been teaching for 9 years. I earned my degree in Early Childhood Education, and I truly love helping young children learn, grow, and build confidence. Watching their personalities shine and celebrating their accomplishments is one of the most rewarding parts of being a teacher!
