Welcome to Kindergarten!
Hello Kindergarten Families,
I am so excited to be in my sixth year here at St. Joseph Catholic School!
I graduated from Northern Illinois University with a degree in elementary education. I have taught Kindergarten for many years and before that I was a fourth grade teacher. I am excited to be part of a Catholic school environment to cultivate a love for learning and to help my students grow in their relationship with Christ.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, hiking around the local parks and cheering on the Chicago Blackhawks.
I look forward to a wonderful year!
