About The Teacher

My name is Ms. Brinker and I am glad to be your teacher this year!  I 
have been teaching for 13 years.  This is my sixth year at Holy Infant.  I 
attended East Central College in Union, Missouri where I earned my 
Associates of Arts Degree in Education.  After East Central, I transferred 
to Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau where I finished 
with a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education with an emphasis in 
Language and Literature and a minor in Spanish. In July 2000 I graduated 
from National Louis University with a Masters Degree in 
Interdisciplinary Studies and Instruction.
     My family is such an important part of my life!  My mom and dad live in 
Washington, Missouri and are both retired.  They are both still VERY active 
in many different projects.  Mostly with their kids!  I have two sisters.  
Stephanie - almost 33 is an accountant with Magellan Behavioral Health in 
Earth City.  Debbie - 31 is a manager at both St. Louis Bread Company and 
Ponderosa Steakhouse. My sisters both live in St. Peters.  I have one 
brother, Tim, 26, who is expecting his first child with his wife.  He is the 
President of Eagan Building Group in Washington.
     In my spare time, I LOVE helping children!  I tutor almost every night 
after school.  I also teach a Spanish class in Washington one night a week. 
This year I am also teaching PSR at Holy Infant and at Our Lady of Lourdes in 
Washington. I keep VERY busy.  I spend a lot of time with my family and 
friends! We love to BBQ and just have a great time enjoying each other's 
company!
     Holy Infant holds such a special place in my heart.  I have been 
blessed with such a wonderful group of people to work with!  The parents are 
so supportive, generous and so loving. Thank you for sharing your child 
with me!
