When did you start at Holy Family - St. Mary's School?

• My first year at HFSM was August of 2022. This is the start of my third year!

What is your favorite part about teaching Kindergarten?

• My favorite part about teaching kindergarten is getting to be the foundation of students' education. Kindergarten is the first year of school for most students. So, in order to be successful learners, they need to get a solid foundation in Kindergarten. Kindergarten is also the most fun age to teach!

What would you tell parents considering sending their child(ren) to HFSM School?

• If you like a small school where you can get to know all families, teachers, and support staff, HFSM is the place for you. We have a welcoming community which helps us feel like a school family for your students.

What is your favorite Bible Verse?

• Philippians 4:13 - "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

Fun Fact?

• I was a football cheerleader from 2014 - 2017 at the University of North Dakota while attending school!

Each day, as we drive home, we discuss good things that happened while at school. It's fun to hear the stories of kindness, compassion and love that come from them while on our ride home. Some days it's helping a friend clean up a spill, some days it's being the morning message helper, some days it's about adding a loved one to the prayer board. Good things are happening at HFSM school.
