Natalie Price

Maumee Valley Country Day School

A relatively new teacher at Maumee Valley Country Day School, Natalie Price has brought great energy and creativity to her classroom and is tireless in her preparation of meaningful lessons. She is equally committed to working with student organizations after school.

Ms. Price is co-director of the junior class Issue Day with a human rights focus. This was an all-day event that brought a range of outside speakers and experts to the school.

"Ms. Price is a thoughtful and tireless educator," said Shiela Esten, head of Upper School. "She cares deeply about her discipline and about her students. In addition to becoming an excellent classroom teacher, she is a valued colleague and an important contributor to our community."

Ms. Price has a bachelor of arts degree in English and the classics from Vassar College and a master of arts degree in English studies from the University of Exeter, United Kingdom.
