My name is Donna Trunkwalter and this will be my 16th year working in the Voorhees School District. I love helping students recognize their strengths and potential.
I am a dually certified teacher with a specialty in Writing Arts. I believe all students should learn in the least restrictive environment possible. I think it helps all students when children with special needs are included as much as possible in a general education setting. Some of the most important lessons taught during these times are life lessons like learning to be kind to each other, learning how to get along, and learning how to work together with people who may seem different, but share many similarities. I love to encourage lifelong learning and helping children develop a growth mindset.
I have two wonderful daughters, a son-in-law, and two beautiful grandchildren named Alastair and Saskia!! We like spending time outdoors and taking walks in the woods of NJ. Our current goal is to take a family trip to Disney World.
I love being a teacher because I love helping children gain confidence in their abilities. I love to see them feel proud of their accomplishments.
