First grade is all about reading, writing and gaining confidence as a student. Building students up because of their strengths and helping them persevere through their struggles. First grade students learn the Rosary and pray it everyday. One of the highlights of the year is when they make their own rosaries!

I love first graders because of their excitement to learn and their willingness to make mistakes and grow from them. It’s such an honor to see them grow from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. My favorite part about teaching first grade is showing students how to love learning and to become life long learners.

I was drawn to St. Vincent's because of the amazing community and the love of faith, which are both so important to me. It is the greatest joy for me to walk with my students and assist them in becoming true saints and citizens of this world!
