Welcome to Room 219B First Graders! 

Hello and welcome! 

My name is Miss Burke and I am one of the first grade teachers.  Some might know me as Miss Kelly from working as a Teacher's Aide in the Preschool last year.  I am so excited to be given this amazing opportunity to continue my teaching career at St. Benedict Preparatory School! 

I grew up in a small town near Youngstown, Ohio.  I attended Catholic Schools from elementary throughout high school.  I then continued my catholic education by attending Saint Mary's College where I graduated with my BA degree in Elementary Education.

From the young age of first grade, I knew I had always wanted to become a teacher.  Maybe it was from my amazing experience in the classroom with my first grade teacher when I knew this was my ideal grade to teach! I am hoping to give your child that same amazing experience this school year.  

I am looking forward to meeting you all and having a great year! 

Miss Kelly Burke

 

 

 

 

 

This summer I traveled to San Francisco to visit my brother.  Here is a picture of me taking a ride on the cable car! I can't wait to hear about your summer vacation!
