ACDC Staff

I live in Delmar, MD with my husband Scott and three children Riley, Blake and Colby. I graduated from Salisbury University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education/Outdoor Education. I taught Kindergarten at a local private school for over 6 years. Before working as the Director of Asbury Child Development Center, I was the director of a child development center on the Western Shore. I enjoy spending time with my family at the beach, boating, fishing/crabbing, and skiing.

Cindi Hildreth has been a teacher at ACDC since 2000, teaching the Fours Pre-K class. She lives in Salisbury with her husband Brian and has 3 grown children Kyle, Brandon & Kimmy. Her children all “graduated” from ACDC as well. CIndi and her family attend Asbury UMC. She is a graduate of Washington College where she majored in French Education. An animal lover, you can always find some 4 legged creatures or a tank full of fish in her classroom.

Cindi enjoys getting “reconnected” with her prior students and catching up with what they’ve become after their preschool years. Cindi loves to paint, garden and enjoys quiet walks with her husband and dogs.

I graduated from Parkside High School and attended Wesley College in Dover, DE where I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education.

My name is Margaret Engler. I was born and raised in Salisbury and am a graduate of Salisbury State. My husband Steve & I have been married for 32 years and have three children; Brian, Caitlin & Matt. I have worked at ACDC since 1999 when I was hired as a classroom aide in the two’s classes and had that job for three years. I began teaching in 2002, still with the two’s classes. Sometimes I’m asked “What can you teach a two your old?” My answer—“What can you NOT teach a two year old?” I feel blessed to work in such a supportive, vibrant environment and hope to be around for some time yet!

Sarah McCabe is married to Chris and they have two children; Hannah and Leah. She graduated from Salisbury University with a Bachelor’s degree in Music and a Master of Arts in Teaching. After teaching for 14 years in both private the private and public school system, she felt drawn to Asbury Child Development and became a substitute teacher. She is very excited to be working with such a wonderful staff and all of the sweet children who bring her so much joy!

Sarah McCabe teaches music on Tuesday and Wednesday.

I graduated from Washington College with degrees in Music and Psychology. I am married my wonderful husband, Brian. Asbury has been a second home to me for my entire life, but oddly enough I am the only one between my three siblings and myself who did not attend ACDC as a child due to where my family was living at the time. I am very excited to be part of this work family in a place that is so near and dear to my heart.

I work in Kindergarten and the 3’s classroom. I’m so thankful for the opportunity to work with the ACDC students during their journey here at Asbury. It is incredible to see the growth they make socially and academically.

I am married to a wonderful husband, David. We met when we were attending Salisbury University. While there, I received my degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Communication Arts. Years later, I also received my Masters in Education. Although my husband and I grew up on the western shore, we fell in love with Salisbury and decided to make it our home.

I taught in the public school system for 7 years. Then I became a MOM! I was very fortunate to stay home with my two sons, Colby and Cade, who are now teenagers. They are easy to spot with their red hair, blue eyes and freckles. One of my favorite things to do is watch them play baseball and basketball. My boys went to Asbury for 3’s, 4’s and Kindergarten. I started working at Asbury when my youngest son was in Mrs. Huey’s 4’s class. I love working at Asbury! I’m thankful for a job that makes me smile every day!

When I’m not working, I love going to the beach, hanging out with friends and family, swimming, walking, reading magazines and baking.  I love summer!
