About Dr. Coglianese

Described by peers and school board executives as student-focused, collaborative, goal-oriented and data-driven, Dr. Coglianese smiles and modestly describes her nearly 30 years in education as a teacher, administrator, national speaker, and professional development trainer as simply ‘a labor of love.’ “I feel incredibly blessed to be able to wake up every day and do what I love – and that’s to help improve the lives of children,” she said.
