About the Teacher

Hi! I am Kathy Daigle, and I am very excited to be teaching second grade at the Dedham School!  Previously, I taught third through sixth grade in CT, MA and FL. I have always loved teaching and motivating kids to do their best. I want school to be a place they look forward to coming to each & every day. 

In second grade we will read wonderful books, write lots of stories, further our mathematical abilities, explore science & learn about the world around us! We have a program throughout the year called Mystery Reader where readers come in to read a favorite picture book of their choice to our class. It is always a surprise on who it is and the kids love it.  We will also be studying butterflies and raising them in our class!

I grew up in CT and spent my summers on Phillips Lake. My parents are from Brewer. My husband Brian and I decided to move to Maine permanently in 2020, and we have really enjoyed living here. The Dedham community is extra special and we are happy to be a part of it! 

We have four children named Rob, Ellie, Thomas and Kiersten. Rob and Ellie live and work in Boston, Thomas just recently graduated from Curry College in MA and Kiersten is a junior at John Bapst. She attended Dedham School for her eighth grade year and loved it.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, fishing, walking, reading, and exploring new places to visit in Maine.

We have two Golden Retrievers named Millie & Hannah and a cat named Phillip. They are like the three musketeers, and the children will hear lots of stories about their antics!

Second grade rocks, and we are going to have a wonderful year together! Please feel free to reach out to me anytime at kdaigle@dedhamschool.net.
