PKES Panthers

We want to welcome Natalie Harden to our special education team. Mrs. Harden will be a special setting teacher at PKES for the 2026-2027 school year. Here is a little more information about Mrs. Harden.

I am excited to join Pleasant Knoll Elementary School as a Special Settings Teacher. I have worked in special education for 22 years, with the last two years serving as a Special Education Instructional Coach. While I enjoyed supporting teachers and students in that role, I missed working directly with students and families and felt called to return to the classroom.

I am passionate about helping all students grow and am thrilled to be back doing what I love most, teaching and serving students.
Outside of school, I am the proud mom of two children. My daughter, Liv, will be an 8th grader at Pleasant Knoll Middle School, and my son, Parker, will be a 6th grader there.
I am excited to join the PKES family and look forward to a wonderful school year!
