Karie Daley’s Biography
I have been an educator and artist for nearly two decades. I am originally from California where I earned my BA in Social Sciences from Santa Clara University and then my MA in Secondary Education from Concordia University, Irvine. After starting my teaching career in California, my husband and I moved to Oregon, where I continued teaching. In 2004, we (family) relocated to North Carolina. We love living in North Carolina!
In addition to grade level social studies, I have taught visual arts to grades k-12, middle school ELA, government, economics, journalism, and AP US history. I have developed social studies and art curriculum for local schools and camps. I have always incorporated art into core classes as it offers incredible visualization of culture, time, and era for Social Studies and ELA.
I am extremely excited to create a Visual Arts program at Excelsior Classical Academy for the upper school and I am so pleased to be a part of this growing community.
