Special Education

Mrs. Karwowski has a teaching certificate with endorsements in K-5 self-contained, 6-8 Science, and Language Arts.  She has also earned an early childhood (ZA) endorsement and a master's degree in Autism K-12. Paula began teaching preschool in 2019, and Kindergarten in 2021. She is now the elementary special education teacher in Deerfield. Mrs. Karwowski says she loves rescuing animals in need and working in her garden. She also loves the small-town family feel of Britton Deerfield and the friendships that she has made with coworkers.

I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a degree in Special Education/Elementary Education with a minor in Math.  I started my teaching career at Prairie Elementary as a fourth-grade teacher, then as a first-grade teacher.
