My name is Ms. Al-Aaraji and I am a native Charlottean. Yes! I was here before the Carolina Panthers, before the Hornets, and before Carowinds!
I received my Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Arts (Honors) in History from the University of Auckland, New Zealand. I also minored in English with an emphasis on Writing Studies (just 1 class short of a double major!). After completing my degree, I served as a para-educator in one of Auckland's top middle schools where I found teaching to be exhilarating and gratifying. In 2013, I completed a Graduate Diploma in Teaching specializing in the subjects of English, Social Studies, and History. I taught all three subjects at a local high school in Auckland and am proud to return to Charlotte to serve my own community.
I am thrilled to join the Southwest Middle School family. I look forward to serving students and their parents and being part of educational community!
