Marissa Stalker

Bio

Mrs. Marissa Stalker is a dedicated ESE (Exceptional Student Education) teacher whose heart for students and passion for serving God has guided each step of her life. She has always known she wanted to work with kids and that journey officially began as a camp counselor and quickly grew into a leadership role as a childcare director, overseeing an after-school program serving over 200 students. While administration taught her valuable skills, her heart longed to be with the students—and God opened the door.

That door led her to Pathways School of Excellence, where she began as a paraprofessional and discovered her calling: working with exceptional students. With renewed purpose, she pursued and completed her teaching degree, and was soon invited to join the teaching staff at Pathways.

Today, Mrs. Stalker brings not only professional excellence but also deep compassion to her classroom. She has a special passion for teaching communication and functional life skills, all while creating a loving, Christ-centered environment where every student is valued, supported, and seen.
