Jennifer Morneau My belief is that a positive, nurturing learning environment is the key for every child to begin their love of learning during the early foundations of their education. I also believe in keeping the structure and routine of our day-to-day learning as consistent as possible. ​ I came to Windham Academy as a kindergarten teacher in 2018. I began my teaching career in 2003 as a pre-k teacher in Hampstead, NH where I taught until 2012. From 2012 to 2018, I taught a multi- age pre-k and kindergarten class in Salem, NH. I look forward to meeting all of my new students as we enter a new school year!

Andrew Ferguson For the past three years I have worked as a 4th and 5th grade regular classroom and Science teacher at Saint Christopher Academy in Nashua. Teaching Math and Science is my passion and I look forward to passing this on to the students in our school community. This marks my second stint as an educator, I previously taught 7th and 8th grade Special Education. I left teaching to pursue some business opportunities for multiple years; however, I could not stay away from the classroom! I have a Master’s Degree in Education and also hold a special education certification, both obtained at Rivier University in Nashua. I earned my undergraduate degree in Marketing and Economics from the University of Massachusetts. My family and I moved to Windham two years ago from Nashua. We enjoy the beach, boating, fishing in the warmer months, and skiing in the winter. I am a passionate follower of Boston sports, particularly my beloved Red Sox, but very much so the Patriots, Celtics and Bruins as well. I also love to cook, and if you ask my wife and teenage daughter they'll tell you that I'm pretty good! We have the world's greatest dog Molly, a rescue from Texas. I look forward to joining the Windham Academy community this fall! Feel free to stop by my classroom and say hello!
