The Rotary Club of Salisbury is pleased to welcome to its Thursday, March 5 meeting Wicomico County educator Kristin Cashman. Her presentation is “Breaking Down Apathetic Walls-The Importance of Building Community and Early Education Intervention.”
Cashman, a 1998 graduate of Salisbury University and daughter of Rotary Club of Salisbury member Jack Heath, holds a degree in elementary education and currently teaches reading intervention at Wicomico Middle School while pursuing a Master’s Degree as a Reading Specialist.

As the 2013-2014 Wicomico County Teacher of the Year and Master Teacher, she keynotes at numerous schools, universities, and community organizations.
