“This is my second year on the PTA board serving as the co-recording secretary. As a Human Resources Consultant by day, joining the board was a natural draw to me in making a difference to what matters the most. Our little people. I am also lucky enough to be one of the mothers to bring the Girl Scouts back to Saint Mary School this year, with 50 of our own SMS girls joining. I have been married to my husband, Doug, for almost 10 years. We have two children at Saint Mary School; our son, Cole, is in 2nd grade and our daughter, Olivia, is in 1st. As one of the more recent additions to the board, it is truly an honor to be around such committed and inspiring people. I am beyond grateful to represent this amazing school community.”

At Saint Mary School, I can use my creativity and drive to give my students the best experience
possible. I want to make school amazing for every student who enters my classroom. That’s
important to me because when I was growing up, most of my teachers didn’t make much of an effort to connect with me or my classmates. Saint Mary students give me so much purpose in my career, and inspire me to be a better person each and every day."

Vice Principal Pat Mullen, Classical Liberal Arts Facilitator Antoinette Cea-Lopes, and Principal Craig Palmer | |
Vice Principal Pat Mullen, Classical Liberal Arts Facilitator Antoinette Cea-Lopes, and Principal Craig Palmer visited Koinonia Academy on October 13. Koinonia Academy has been implementing the Classical Liberal Arts Philosophy for three years now. The goal was to see the philosophy being implemented in the classrooms, kindergarten through high school. They sat and participated in a senior rhetoric/logic course, an 8th grade music appreciation class, a 6th grade history class, a 5th grade language arts class, and a 2nd grade math class. In every classroom, it was not evident from the start that we were attending the right classes as they were fully integrated with art, music, foreign language (Latin), and other cross-content areas. It was very clear that each course was not taught in isolation, but as a continuum, incorporating all disciplines. This approach, one that we hope to emulate even more than we already do, shows the “connectedness” of all disciplines from academia to the arts, and provides our students with a high level of preparedness as they enter high school and beyond. It is our mission to have each SMS student know just who they are and be secure in that knowledge as they graduate. Saint Mary School, where “Beauty, Goodness, and Truth” reign! | | |
