Sarah Bracken

Sarah Bracken brings over 15 years of education experience as a secondary classroom teacher, instructional coach, online course facilitator, and curriculum writer. She spent her childhood living abroad in Zagreb, Hong Kong, Montreal, and Manila which is probably why she gravitated toward teaching positions where she could learn from and support culturally and linguistically diverse newcomers. Sarah is a Nationally Board Certified teacher with a B.A. from the University of Virginia and a master’s in teaching from The Evergreen State College. She taught in Washington state, Maryland, Virginia, and Alaska before joining CPL as a consultant in 2020, and then as a senior project associate in 2024.

Sarah calls western North Carolina home. She tries to play outside with her family every day, whether it’s kayaking, hiking, camper-ing, or running through a sprinkler in the backyard.
