Welcome to my web page! I have been happily teaching third grade at St.
Athanasius/Immaculate Conception School for twenty-five years. Prior to
coming here, I taught first grade in Connecticut for 12 years. I have a
Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education and a Master of Science
degree in Special Education.
I am married to Ronald O'Brien and we have a black and white kitten named
Nehemiah Moses Bevard O'Brien. In my spare time, I love to read, do crafty
things, garden, travel and be with my family.
My expectations for the year are for the children to work to the best of
their ability, work well with each other and the school staff, treat each
other with respect and kindness and to continue to grow and mature. Each
child is expected to become less dependent on the teacher and more self-
reliant in all academic areas. Studying will be an essential part of the
year.
As we progress this year, I hope to share not only my knowledge in the
subject areas but instill in the children the moral values that are
intrinsic
in the values of this Catholic school.
I am looking forward to another wonderful year and am so happy to have your
child in my class!
My mission is to teach the whole child so that he/she will become a lifelong
learner, critical thinker, problem solver, good citizen and thoughtful of
others always.
