With 20 years of experience in education, Teri Mickle is a dedicated advocate for students, teachers and families. As an education professional and mom to three busy West Shore students, she understands firsthand the importance of strong schools and the impact they have on our community. Married to a coach, Teri has seen how strong academics and extracurricular opportunities work together to shape well-rounded students. 

 

Throughout her career, Teri has focused on access to education, both personally and professionally. Her work has focused on creating partnerships between academic institutions to expand educational opportunities for students while addressing issues like financial barriers and accessibility. In her spare time, Teri advocates for Pennsylvania’s public schools as a Public Education Champion with Education Voters of PA. She believes in transparency, fiscal responsibility and collaboration between schools, parents, and the community. Her experience in career outcomes and public education advocacy, as well as her active role as a parent in the district, have prepared her to bring fresh ideas and practical solutions to the school board. 

 

As a school board member, Teri will prioritize academic excellence, teacher support and access to the resources students need to succeed. She is ready to work to make a difference for our schools, our students, and our future.
