Q & A with Mrs. Paul

Highlight of the year:

I love taking our preschoolers to the pumpkin patch in the fall! It makes my heart happy to see our students having this experience. 

Passion:

I am most passionate about encouraging curiosity and creativity in a comforting learning environment.

Philosophy:

With a classroom full of preschoolers, I believe the greatest method I can use is positive reinforcement.

Favorite part of teaching:

Everything! Getting to know the children and being a positive influence in their lives is so important. Watching them progress and knowing they will go on to do great things in the future always puts a smile in my face!

Favorite thing about St. Martha:

St. Martha has been a part of my life since birth. It’s a family…my family. The community built around the school and church is amazing and I’m so lucky to have been apart of it for over 40 years.

Fun fact:

I have four children. My oldest is a St. Martha alum and my younger three are current Shamrocks. Along with my husband, Steve, and our children, we love doing anything outside. Camping, fishing, hiking, and just being in nature.
