TEACHER OF THE WEEK


Hi, my name is April Richard.  
I am married with two beautiful daughters; ages 13 and 4.  I have been working at St. Patrick's for almost two months and I have enjoyed it immensely.   Some things I like to do on the weekends are: spending time with my extended family, visiting the zoo, and playing at the park with my girls.
