Hello! I teach social studies and language arts to grades 7 & 8 for part of the day, and the rest of the day I am the school librarian. I serve on the professional development team, working to provide opportunities for our teachers to grow intellectually, spiritually, and emotionally.
St. Patrick is a special place, and that is why I have stayed so long. The faculty is amazing and the families supportive. It is a great place to be. I appreciate the family-like atmosphere. All five of my children attended St. Pats from preschool through eighth grade. My husband Steve also attended St. Pats.
I received by undergraduate degree at UNI, and I am currently back at UNI working on my masters degree in library science. My masters research study is the impact pleasure reading has on students' social emotional well being.
I have been a parishioner since 1992. In my spare time I enjoy reading, riding my bike, and working in my yard. I also like spending time with family and friends.
