Lisa McCarston
Greetings! My name is Mx. McCarston (they/them/theirs), and I am thrilled to introduce myself as the new 8th grade science teacher and Intro to Computer Science 1 instructor at Global Arts Plus Upper (GAPU) for the upcoming school year. The best way to contact me is via email at lisa.mccarston@spps.org or text at (651) 705 - 6731.
As I embark on my 10th year of teaching, I am delighted to be a part of the GAPU community. I am from Greenville, WI, studied Integrated Science Education and photography at Northern Michigan University, and completed a Chemistry masters program at Ohio University in 2021. I am eager to bring my experience and enthusiasm to our classroom and to collaborate with your children on their educational adventures.
Beyond the classroom, I enjoy hiking, reading, and photography. I live on the East side of St. Paul with my wife and two wonderful kids, aged 3.5 and 1, who keep my life vibrant and full of wonder.
Thank you for the warm welcome I have already received. I am excited about the year ahead and look forward to partnering with you in supporting your child’s educational journey.
In collaboration,
Mx. McCarston
