Margo Banks
PK2 & Kindergarten – English

JERSEY CITY, NJ

Margo is delighted to be part of the French American Academy community. A California native, she completed her university studies there before moving to Massachusetts, where she taught first and second grade in project-based learning schools. These experiences deepened her passion for student-centered education and the joy of guiding children as they develop new skills, explore ideas, and learn to collaborate with their peers.

Margo values teaching as a creative and dynamic profession that allows her to inspire curiosity and help students discover their own voices. Outside of the classroom, she enjoys spending time in nature, whether at the beach, hiking, or biking. She also loves reading, journaling, and baking, as well as spending time with family and friends.
