Amy Stoios is a staunch advocate for students who require accommodation in the classroom. Her strong experience and academic background has always centered around maximizing the educational experience for students whose needs fall outside typical learning styles.

Ms. Stoios holds a M.Ed. from Eastern University in Multicultural Education with a focus in reading, and a B.S. degree in Psychology from The Pennsylvania State University in State College, Pennsylvania. During her graduate study, she was awarded membership in Kappa Delta Pi, an international honor society in the field of education. Ms. Stoios has also earned graduate-level certification from the Pennsylvania Department of Education as a Supervisor of Special Education as a capstone to her additional certifications as a Reading Specialist, Elementary Education (K-6), and Mentally and/or Physically Handicapped Students. She has over 100 hours of professional development in gifted education.

Most recently, she has taught both graduate and undergraduate courses at Eastern University’s School of Education where her classes emphasized children who need special support in their learning, including key components of teaching gifted students. She has also worked as an Elementary Special Education Liaison for the West Chester Area School District, where she acted as a Local Education Agency (LEA) in meetings for students identified as special education and/or gifted learners. Her career prior to her LEA work also reflects her lifelong commitment to helping children with special educational needs. She worked as an early intervention specialist for children in the Philadelphia area. She has been part of a therapeutic support team for Central Montgomery County and has acted as a behavioral health worker in Flourtown, Pennsylvania.

Ms. Stoios’s educational philosophy is that each student should have the opportunity to develop his or her unique potential through access to a quality educational program in a supportive learning environment.
