Kim Tarr Email and Phone Number

I have been teaching Special Education classes at the Junior High School and High School level since 1992 in Milford Public Schools. Prior to teaching Special Education at the Secondary level, I taught Elementary Special Education classes. I taught at Pleasant Dale Elementary, which was part of the Milford Public Schools district, from 1987 to 1991. Just prior to teaching in the Milford Public School district I taught at Cheney Elementary School for six years. My first years of teaching I worked part time, so I could have time at home with my young children. Teaching students with special needs is my passion. Teaching requires facing challenges, making quick decisions and problem solving with students. Students need to be a part of the team that makes decisions about their current/future educational/career goals. Students and teachers must be willing to work together to achieve their highest potential. Watching the growth students make along their educational journey brings great joy and excitement to me as a teacher.
