I graduated from Gwynedd Mercy College with a B.S. in Education. I have taught at Ressurection of Our Lord, St Malachy, and Smedly Elemantary School. This will be my 6th year teaching first grade at St.Jerome. Having taught in a public school I can honestly say I would rather teach in a Catholic School. I really enjoy teaching the student's about God's teachings and getting the students excited to be kind and loving like Jesus. My children attended St. Jerome and I am a parishionner, teaching here with this great faculty makes me proud of my parish.

In PreK 4 we introduce basic skills needed for learning! We learn and develop our social skills, following directions, motor skills, letter sounds and recognition, numbers and listening skills. Our PreK students learn the importance of staying on a task, gaining responsibilities and cooperating and coping. We love to read stories and have many opportunities to develop reading and listening skills. We participate in the 1,000 Book Challenge and have a Take Home Book Club. We participate in the Children's Literacy Initiative to build the foundation to become a great reader and student! We also have a Thanksgiving Feast, Halloween Parade, Mother's Day Tea, Donuts with Dad, Teddy Bear Picnic and many other celebrations throughout the year!
