Hello! My name is Pam Durkin and I have been a special education teacher at the Morey School for the past 23 years. I’m married and a mom to three wonderful children ranging from ages 25 to 17.
I’m sure it is obvious that I love the C.W. Morey school because I have chosen to stay here to teach these wonderful kids, while continuing to grow and learn as an educator. There is never a dull moment working in the special education field. I enjoy working with kids from various grade levels, as well as students with diverse learning styles. I love trying out new strategies and programs. I can’t begin to describe how gratifying and exciting it is to watch my students grow emotionally and academically.
The Morey School is an amazing place, and I’m so fortunate to work here and get to know and work with the most incredible kids. My greatest joy is when the former Morey School students come back and visit and share their many accomplishments. I love hearing their stories and experiences. It’s times like these that make all of our hard work worthwhile! We are Morey Proud!!!

I have been a special education teacher at the C. W. Morey School for the past fourteen years. Currently, I support students in first grade and preschool. I also work in the Twenty First Century summer program, at C. W. Morey, as a classroom teacher.
Helping children to learn and develop skills is very rewarding. All of the small accomplishments are very exciting, and we are amazed every day! I feel very fortunate to work in this nurturing environment where expectations are high for students and staff alike.
I live in Lowell with my husband. We have three grown children. They were all educated in Lowell Public Schools. I also have five grandchildren. I enjoy watching them learn and grow too!
