Dr. Amanda Swartzlander - Intermediate Academy Leader
There is something palpably electric in beginning a new journey, engaging in a new experience and joining a new community. Dr. Swartzlander is energized by joining the NCS family. She has 16 years of public school experience- all of those years spent in middle school. Having taught 8th grade ELA and SS for the bulk of that time, she has determined that she truly is a middle school kid at heart. Dr. Swartzlander’s happy place is surrounded by teenage kids, facilitating learning, and growing by watching, listening, and learning with them. Dr. Swartzlander loves middle school and strives daily to make the struggles of this time in a young person’s life more navigable and positive.
Dr. Swartzlander received her Bachelor's Degree in Middle Grades Education from Mars Hill University, her Masters in Executive Leadership and Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction from Gardner Webb University.
When not working, she enjoys laughing with her partner and chasing her 2 year old son. Dr. Swartzlander is obsessed with music and reality tv (judgement free zone).
