Anna Gilbert, Substitute

Anna is a designer who pulls inspiration from nature. She has a degree in Graphic Arts and also one in Communication. Substitute-teaching for BOPN feeds her passion for the outdoors and her desire to support children in developing an early and meaningful relationship with the flora and fauna of forests. She enjoys plein-air painting, playing music, biking and hiking with her family. Anna’s son attended the pilot year at Wellesley BOPN and continued for a second year in the full-day pre-kindergarten class—he is currently a happy, nature-loving first-grader.
