ANGELA McCONNELL
Director of Children's Ministries Graduating with a business major and owning her own business, Angela moved to Wilmington in 2007 with her husband and three children. Following her forever love of teaching she completed her Montessori Teacher training where she received her American Montessori Society (AMS) Early Childhood Education. Angela has taught at both kindergarten and preschool level for several years before coming to us here at Little Chapel on the Boardwalk. The Montessori Method allows the child to learn with ease through their interaction with the environment, rather than through the words of the teacher. The fruits of an excellent Montessori program are children who love learning and are fully engaged in their own self-development. I am so blessed to be on this journey with these amazing children and this incredible community. Angela plans and coordinates VBS, teaches Sunday School and Children’s Church here at Little Chapel. With her love of children, creative ideas and Christian background it seems like a natural fit.
