About Rita Wedge

Rita Wedge- Academic Advisor

Hello! I joined the AAPC team in October 2023. I was born and raised near Syracuse NY. I have two adult daughters, one has a BS in Environmental Science and the other a Masters Degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering. I earned my Bachelors degree in Young Exceptional Children at the University of Delaware and am an alumni of College of Charleston, earning my Masters degree in 1990. I have been in public school education for 38 years, teaching students with special needs, kindergarten and as a Math intervention Specialist, all at the elementary level. I recently moved back to the Charleston area. I am an avid reader and sports fan. I enjoy movies and jigsaw puzzles. I prefer to be out in nature especially near the ocean. I am passionate about sustainability, my health, the ocean, and sea turtles.
