Welcome to my page

Hello,

My name is Pamela Gikas-Gajic, and I am proud to serve as part of the Learning Diversity & Inclusion Department at Lincoln Park High School (LPHS). I have been at LPHS since 2008 and previously taught in the Individuals & Societies Department before transitioning to Case Management.

Currently, I serve as a Secondary Case Manager and STEP (Secondary Transition Experience Program) Teacher, helping students build skills for employment, post-secondary education, and independent living. In addition, I am the Lead of the LDI Department, a member of the Instructional Leadership Team and Behavioral Health Team, and the school’s Home/Hospital Coordinator. In all of these roles, I focus on ensuring students have access to the supports, strategies, and opportunities they need to succeed academically, socially, and beyond high school.

I hold a Master of Science in Special Education (LBSI and LBSII: Curriculum Adaptation) from Northeastern Illinois University, a Master of Education in Educational Leadership from the American College of Education, and a Bachelor of Arts in Secondary Education History from DePaul University.

To contact me, please email [email protected] or call 773-534-8088. If I am unavailable, please leave a message and I will return your call.

I look forward to collaborating with you to support your child’s educational journey.
