Hello, my name is Sara Sylvester. I have worked for Saint Paul Public Schools for 20 years. I have been at St. Paul Music Academy working in the Autism Program for 3 years. I was the Distance Learning Teacher for ASD 2 years ago. For the 13 years prior to that I have worked at the high school level in special education. 

I am a Saint Paul Public School graduate(go Cougars!). I got an undergraduate degree in journalism from University of Wisconsin-River Falls. After that I got a job as a TA at SPPS at Benjamin E. Mays Elementary school where I fell in love with working in special education. I then got my masters degree in special education from University of St. Thomas.

When I'm away from school I enjoy spending time with my family.

I am very excited to be working at Saint Paul Music Academy!
