"Hello! I am so very excited for this role as the fifth grade teacher! I have had the pleasure to be a substitute for many of the classes at Holy Cross and am thrilled to be able to see the sweet familiar faces on a daily basis. As a parent of two boys who attend Holy Cross, I know how special our school is and am honored to have this position. It is an absolute blessing to be able to join the outstanding staff and teach the wonderful group of students we have. Our Holy Cross Family is so unique and I look forward to establishing more connections with the families at our school."
