Mrs. Arsenault's Bio

I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration from Merrimack College, a Master's Degree in Business Education from New Hampshire College, and post-graduate credits in Education from University of New England.

Prior to teaching, I worked as an Accountant for KGR, Inc. in Lawrence, Massachusetts. During a brief absence from the office, I worked as a substitute teacher. In that short time, I realized that teaching was what I always wanted to do. That is when I returned to school and got a degree in Business Education. The rest is history! I love being a teacher! Being able to teach students to be prepared for college and for a career that I enjoyed for many years is an extremely rewarding way to spend my days. Thanks to all of my students for the opportunity.
