I’m Janelle Bascom. I’m very excited to be part of the St. Jerome’s community. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in ECE/Elementary Ed from Temple University. I have been in the ECE field for the past 27 years as a Pre-k & Kindergarten teacher and most recently a director of a preschool. I am happily married with 3 children. My oldest daughter recently graduated from high school. My middle daughter is in first grade at St. Jerome. And my youngest, my son, is in the kindergarten at St. Jerome. I am enjoying this chapter of my teaching career with the St. Jerome’s family and for my children to be a part of it also.

In Pre-K 3, we focus on learning our letters, numbers, shapes, and colors. We learn about God and all the great things he gave us and the many reasons he made us special. We have fun with making arts and crafts, dancing, and singing. We also learn to be kind friends and practice sharing. It is a great place to be!
