Welcome
About Mrs. Crooks
This will be my twenty-third year teaching. I have worked both as a Special Educator and general educator. I graduated from Towson University with a BS in General Education. I received my Masters’ Degree in Special Education from Loyola University. I have my advanced certification in General Education, Special Education, and Reading.
I have been married for 13 years and have a son, Colby, who just started fourth grade. I had a busy summer so far traveling to Ocean City, New York City, going to the pool, visiting with friends and families, and going on many local adventures.
