I always enjoy sharing stories about exceptional educators who have earned recognition for their work in the classroom. One of these is Brandi Luloff, an elementary teacher from Delaware who has garnered a  2022 Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching (PAEMST). This prestigious award honors the dedication, hard work, and important role that America’s teachers play in supporting learners who will become future STEM professionals, including computer technologists, climate scientists, mathematicians, innovators, space explorers, and engineers.

In a career that has spanned 17 years, Brandi has spent the last six of them at Townsend Elementary School in Townsend, Delaware. She spent the previous six years teaching at Maclary Elementary and Gallaher Elementary Schools in the Christina School District. Prior to that, she taught kindergarten for five years at Bright Horizons Family Solutions.

In her classroom, Brandi uses problem-based learning and she designs curriculum that engages her students in real-world scenarios.

Brandi’s passion for teaching and mathematics goes beyond her classroom walls. She serves her school as a full-time Instructional Coach, a role in which she works closely with classroom teachers to support student learning across the curriculum. Also, she represents her school as the District Math Content Chair Representative and on the Math Task Leadership team. In addition, Brandi collaborates with the District Leadership Team to organize and facilitate curriculum events for families and staff. And she conducts Professional Learning Community meetings and District professional development programs.

In addition to her PAEMST honors, Brandi was named her District’s Teacher of the Year in 2018.

Brandi earned her Bachelor’s degree in Child Psychology from the University of Pittsburgh and a Master’s degree in Elementary/Special Education from Wilmington University. She is currently attending Wilmington University to earn a Master’s degree in School Leadership and Administration.
