About The Teacher

I was born and raised in Phoenixville, PA.  I attended Sacred Heart School, 
Phoenixville. For High School I chose to go St. Cyril Academy, Danville, PA.
I received my BS in Elementary Education from Cabrini College, Radnor, PA 
and my MS in Elementary Education from Marywood University, Scranton, PA.
Before joining the MDP school community, I taught in Binghamton, NY, 
Bridgeport, CT, Whiting, IN, Gary, IN, Endicott, NY, Bridgeport, PA and 
Pittston, PA.  

I have had 27 wonderful years at MDP and have made many long-
lasting friends. I feel blessed and privileged to be a part of such an 
outstanding school family.

Mission For The Class

I believe education is built on the cooperative effort between parent, 
student, and teacher.  
                                                    
My goals for the 4th Grade are:
> To build a sense of belonging to God's family
> To develop basic Christian attitudes
> To foster a healthy concept of self, others, and school
> To develop a sense of responsibility and fair play
> To enhance intellectual ability, and
> To strengthen individual creativity

Working together, we can stimulate, affirm, and challenge your child's 
learning potential to bring out the best, making this year a happy learning 
experience.
