As I end my eighth year at St. Theresa's I reflect on what a blessing it is to work here. This is the third Catholic school I have taught at in my almost 20 years of teaching and the teaching staff we have here are by far the most dedicated, educated and creative group of people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. We are a family and that is one of the many reasons I love to come to work every day.
The other reason I love coming to work is the students. The students are my why I love to teach. I can honestly say I love each and every one of them from the minute they walk into my classroom and I feel blessed that I get to watch them grow up through middle school and hopefully beyond. Their tenacity, creativity, and inquisitive spirit are what keep me wanting to be creative in my teaching as well as learn new skills to teach them better.
This eLearning experience is a perfect example of everything I have just mentioned. As a staff, we have worked hard together to bring the best eLearning experience that we can to our students and in turn, our students are stepping up to the plate not just by taking this new way of learning by stride but by getting creative themselves! The way this program has been rolled out is just another reason I am proud to be a St. Theresa Tiger.
