Democrat Abigail Spanberger, a former CIA officer … once taught English at Islamic Saudi Academy, a Northern Virginia school that critics have dubbed "Terror High" because some students later joined al-Qaeda.
In 2002, Spanberger worked as a substitute teacher at the private school, filling in for a teacher who was on maternity leave during the 2002-2003 school year. She took that job after she'd gotten a conditional job offer from the CIA and was waiting out the long security-clearance process.
She went on to work in law enforcement for the Postal Service and then as an intelligence officer for the CIA, including work overseas aimed at fighting terrorism.
