Intermediate Teachers: Grade 3 - Grade 5

Third Grade - Mrs. Kelley Monaco
Teaching Philosophy and Educational Approach
My philosophy of education is that all children are unique and must have a stimulating educational environment where they can grow mentally, educationally and socially. I am passionate about reading and writing and I try to instill that into my students. I make the material personally relevant by focusing on my students' individual needs. I strive to show each student that they can become successful despite their reading or writing weaknesses. I have high expectations and I always encourage my students to have self confidence so they can do their best work!

Third Grade - Ms. Caitlin Quinn
Teaching Philosophy and Educational Approach:

John C. Maxwell once stated, “Students do not care how much you know until they know how much you care.” I am committed to creating a nurturing and accepting classroom environment in order for everyone to reach their full potential academically, socially, and spiritually. I believe that learning is a lifelong journey and one that should be appreciated. I strive to help students foster their love of learning by keeping them actively engaged in their studies through small group instruction and providing opportunities to work with others.

Fourth Grade - Mrs. Lauren White
Teaching Philosophy and Educational Approach:
"It's not what is poured into students that counts, but what is planted" is a quote by Linda Conway and I couldn't agree more. As teachers, we are to be the guides in our students' learning experiences and allow them to have the opportunities to create their own learning.  Hands-on learning, working with classmates, and showcasing student work is a big part of my beliefs as an educator.  Our students all have different learning preferences and my goal is to make sure the students in my class feel comfortable with their learning and are always working towards their academic goals.  Helping students to find a path through their learning experiences and holding them accountable is a huge part of teaching and something that I always strive to follow.

Mrs. Cheryl Griffin, 5th Grade ELA/Math
Teaching Philosophy and Educational Approach:
I believe each child is a unique individual who has the ability to learn and who deserves to do so in a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment. It is my desire as an educator to serve as a guide for each child to learn and grow to their fullest potential. I strive to do this by developing their natural love of learning, teaching them how to take an active part in their education, and preparing them to learn for life rather than for graduation.

Mrs. Kara Boyd, 5th Grade Science/Social Studies/Religion
Teaching Philosophy and Educational Approach:
I believe that no two children learn in exactly the same way or pace. I use multiple teaching strategies and techniques to engage each student. I strive to find ways that help to motivate and engage the all students during the lesson.  I am always willing to take time to help them to discover what works best for them.
I also believe that the classroom should be a setting for students to learn how to be responsible and respectful both inside and outside of school. I have the students work in pairs or groups  to help them learn how to work with others. My hope is that they will grow academically, emotionally, socially and spiritually throughout the year.
