Getting Started

Our small but mighty group of five girls have quickly adapted to the new routines and expectations in the Second Grade classroom. I am blessed to share the year with such kind, thoughtful, and respectful children. We will be working on Reading, Language Arts and Science in the mornings, and Math, Religion, and Social Studies in the afternoons. I have included the Specials Schedule on the next page. Please feel free to contact me with any concerns or questions. I can be reached at school at 754-5221 (ext. 45). Thank you for trusting your child's education with our school, it is a wonderful environment for spiritual and academic learning.
