The Church season of Advent begins the Church's year. During Advent, we prepare for Christmas. We light candles to chase away the winter darkness. These candles remind us that Jesus is the Light of the world.

10 Years Experience At School
I began teaching at St. Pius V in September of 2009. I am a graduate of St. Pius V Class of 2001. After getting my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education, I returned to St. Pius as a Pre-Kindergarten/ Kindergarten Aide. The following year along with completing my Master's degree in Elementary Education, I also became one of the First Grade Teachers which I taught for six years. Two years ago, I began my current role as the Support Service Reading Teacher. Many of my teachers instilled a love of learning that has always stayed with me. I hope to pass that same love of learning on to my students.
