Greetings and welcome to Crossroads!  My name is Andrea Raffaele, but the students know me as Ms. Andi.  I am an Academic Intervention Specialist for the Science side.

My education background includes a bachelor's degree in special education (PK-9) with a focus on Learning Disabilites from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.  After teaching in the Milwaukee area for 17 years, I moved to St. Paul and began volunteering at Crossroads in 2010, which led me to teaching Intersession and Extended Day for Learning.  I was also a guest teacher in St. Paul for a few years before being hired as an Intervention Specialist at Crossroads.

 As an Intervention Specialist, I collaborate with the classroom teachers and other staff to provide academic support to students in grades 1-5, mainly in the area of reading.
