Currently a Secondary Literacy Coach for the Westport Public Schools in Westport, CT, she supports teachers in their understanding and application of disciplinary literacy in English, social studies, and World Language and students in both strengthening their literacy skills and developing a love of reading and writing. She is also the co-author of Stretching Beyond the Textbook, an adjunct professor at Sacred Heart University, presents on literacy at both local and national conferences, and is one of the founders of the Saugatuck StoryFest, a three-day celebration of bringing communities together through story.

Currently an AP Economics and US History teacher, Drew also developed the new Current Issues course at Staples High School.

Since participating in a Connecticut Writing Project summer institute, her teaching has been transformed to develop student voice and power. She currently teaches U.S. History Honors, Contemporary World Studies, and Women in Society. She has had the distinct joy of creating the curriculum for all of these classes – which focus on vital but largely unknown people and events, human rights, citizenship, and activism. She regularly presents on inquiry and activism in her classroom locally, and at the state and national levels and loves sharing the incredible work that her students have accomplished in their local and the international community. Schager practices activism in her non-professional life, is passionate about International Relations and Mideast Studies, and coaches lacrosse. You can follow her on Twitter @danczcat. [/su_row]
