1. Hi! My Name is Mrs. Joanne Brake! I will be your child’s ILC teacher for the 2015-2016 school year! I raised three boys, who are all now grown and married. I have six wonderful grandchildren, ages 18 months to six years old. This will be my 25 th year teaching Special Education and I am excited to make this my best year yet! In May of 1991, I graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education from The University of Texas at Austin, and am certified to teach Special Education, pre-K through 12 th grade. I returned to UT four years later and obtained my Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Special Education. I was born in Liverpool, England and spent the first 10 years of my life there. I then moved with my family to the USA and arrived in Texas during the 8 th. grade. I moved to Georgetown in 2007.
