Donielle Meadows

Digital Learning Coordinator

About me

I'm Donielle Meadows and I have spent the last 8 years as a 2nd grade teacher for Wake County Public Schools. I am currently in my 9th year of education as a Digital Learning Coordinator for the Northern area. I am a proud graduate of North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University where I received my Bachelors degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I have also received my Masters Degree from NC State in Learning, Design, and Technology. When I'm not supporting educators with integration of technology I am spending my time baking and spending time with my husband and baby girl.
