2022 - 2023 School Year

Welcome Students

I have been a Nursery teacher at St. Joseph School for 16 years. This year, I am proud to be the library/literacy teacher for Early Childhood. I am honored to see all students learn and grow. Remember always, that you are important to me, and I believe in you. We will have fun, as we listen to stories, participate in various classroom discussions, group activities, movement, and interact with our Smart T.V. In class, we will make friends, encourage kindness and treat each other with respect. I will always greet you with a smile and positivity. Remember to be the best you can possibly be! Never give up in life, always aim for success and overcome the obstacles. Our class will encourage you to feel confident, and develop a strong sense of self worth, as we create a fun and successful environment. With hard work and determination, anything is possible!

Greetings Parents

Welcome to St. Joseph School! I am looking forward to meeting all parents and students. I am thrilled to watch your child shine brightly in class. Each year will be a year of magical wonder and amazing growth for your child. I will have the privilege of watching the students develop, learn and become fine people who are well prepared for the next challenges in their educational experience. I will enrich the students lives not only academically, but with the spiritual guidance, giving them the fundamentals into understanding and benefiting by receiving a Catholic education. The students will be well on their way to gaining knowledge, developing social skills, mastering tasks and being able to independently think on their own. The children truly amaze me as to what they can achieve in the program provided here at St. Joseph School! I believe an open line of communication between the parent and teacher are key to promoting a pleasant, successful educational climate that is conducive to learning and growing. I encourage you to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. We will work together, as we make each day a most memorable and exciting experience.
