Welcome to Little Knights Preschool
at St. Joseph Catholic School!
“Called to Discipleship: Be Christ’s Light”
I am excited to be a part of the St. Joseph Catholic School community as the new full day preschool teacher working with four year olds. I look forward to being a part of such a positive and caring academic community where body, mind and spirit are nurtured and developed.
Although I earned my education degree in Ohio, I have been a preschool teacher in Libertyville for the last 20 years and at St. Joseph Catholic School for the last 5 years. I am excited to begin my 6th year at St. Joseph teaching preschool. I love teaching preschool children and seeing the world through their eyes. I believe a warm and loving environment both encourages children to learn as well as helps them gain self-confidence. I am a strong believer in learning through play as well as hands on learning to help foster a child’s creativity and development. I look forward to a positive, loving, and wonderful year with your child!

We talked about Teamwork in the Afternoon Enrichment class. We read Rex Wrecks It by: Ben Clinton and talked about ways to include everyone, be supportive and encouraging to get something done. The children figured out the best way to all help each other and we put together a huge chain!
We LOVE being with our Prayer Buddies!
We came out to cheer loudly when our Prayer Buddies ran the Spirit Run. They all do a great job!,
After everyone prayed the Rosary we watched the balloons float up in the sky!
We had fun standing with our 4th grade Prayer Buddies from Mrs. Binkley’s Class.
Getting ready for the Rosary Launch Friday morning.
During afternoon enrichment we read Leo the Late Bloomer by Robert Kraus and then we made our own Tigers to hang in the hallway.
We graphed and counted who we thought would win the big game tonight....Bears or Packers. 9 of us think the Bears will win and 3 think the Packers will win. Tomorrow we will talk about the results
Mrs. Gillespie helped us play the games too!
