Dawn Schiavon

Dawn is originally from California and has taught in the U.S., South Korea, and Hong Kong for ten years before joining Stamford. She has experience teaching kindergarten through Grade 6 students, with management in highly diverse, inclusive classroom environments. Dawn has enjoyed much success developing the curriculum as Math Coordinator at her previous school, being a mentor teacher for aspiring educators, and using educational technology in the classroom. Dawn is passionate about using an inquiry-based learning approach that helps facilitate her students’ genuine interest and engagement.

Dawn says, “My biggest focus as an educator is creating a strong community in my classroom. Through inquiry and collaboration, I want students to look forward to coming to school each day because they think it’s fun and engaging. I believe creating an environment where students feel challenged, safe, and accepted is the key to fostering autonomous learners that have a passion for learning.”
