Bridget McLaughlin

Intermediate Grades Teacher

I graduated with my Master's Degree from the University of Buffalo in 1993. Having had opportunities to student teach in both private and public school settings, I was eager to begin my profession in a school that truly reflected my educational philosophy. I came to Cobblestone as a substitute teacher in the Fall of 1994, and have been teaching here ever since.

During the first steps of my teaching career at Cobblestone, I was surrounded by educational mentors for whom I am immensely grateful. I also consider myself fortunate to continue to learn from the people with whom I work, including the staff, parents, and children here at Cobblestone.

As a member of the Cobblestone Community, I have been a Teacher, Parent, and Board member. I have been involved in numerous initiatives and have served on a variety of committees, including the Education, Strategic Planning, Director Search, and Portfolio committees.

In addition to Cobblestone, I have also enjoyed teaching for the Rochester Museum and Science Center’s summer camps. Both Cobblestone and the RMSC experiences have shaped me as a teacher and life-long student.

Outside of teaching, my main interest is people. Time with my family and friends is what I hold most dear. Include the outdoors, especially the mountains or an ocean, and I could not ask for more!!!
