Welcome to the Team

I would like to welcome Danielle Damon as our new Special Education Paraprofessional. A fun fact is that she was a former Keystone student. Read her introduction below to learn more about her. Please give her a warm Keystone welcome when you see her throughout the building.

 

Hello! My name is Danielle Damon, and I am excited to be joining the Keystone Academy team as a Special Education Paraprofessional! I have lived in Belleville since I was four years old. I attended Keystone Academy for 8th grade and Arbor Prep for 9th grade. I am an avid swimmer, so from 10th grade onward, I attended Belleville High School to swim on the Varsity swim team. It is very exciting to be able to come back to this school in a different capacity. I also attended Eastern Michigan University, where I received a bachelor's degree in social work, and I have developed a strong foundation in supporting individuals with diverse needs. Prior to joining Keystone, I spent about a decade working in a daycare setting, including the last five years as a lead preschool teacher. This experience not only deepened my passion for education but also taught me the importance of creating nurturing environments that foster social, emotional, and cognitive growth. A few hobbies I have are swimming, cooking, working out and watching movies! I am a mother to two energetic boys, ages 8 and 4, whom I love spending time with! Being around children brings me immense happiness, as I love witnessing their curiosity, creativity and growth. While I may be shy at first, I’m a friendly and approachable individual who is eager to build strong relationships with students, families and colleagues.
