Welcome to fifth grade! Fifth grade an exciting, engaging, and informative year. We have a tremendous amount of information to cover in all subject areas. We will be covering topics such as, astronomy, life science, physical science, fractions, measurement, estimation, patterns, persuasive writing, expository writing, and much more!

Just like the students, I attended school in the Diocese of Harrisburg. I attended Holy Name of Jesus School and graduated from Bishop McDevitt High School. After high school, I attended Alvernia University in Reading, PA. My entire education, including college, was at Catholic schools. I am dedicated to Catholic education and delighted to be teaching at Good Shepherd School.
