Hi Everyone! My name is Andrea Laposha. This is my second year teaching at St. Gerard Majella and my 12th year of teaching overall. I am so excited to be a part of this wonderful community! I have a fantastic husband, Andrew, and a 3 year old son, Isaac. We love all things Disney! When I’m not teaching, I love seeing musicals, concerts, swimming, shopping at Target and going to the lake or beach with my family. It is truly a joy to teach Kindergarten and I can’t wait to get to know all of you at SGM! 

Hello. My name is Kim Eggert and I have been blessed to work at SGM as a Kindergarten aide with this being my 17th year. I have been married to my husband Stuart for 24 years and we have 2 children Myah 22 and Mason 20.  In my free time I love to swim if the weather allows and craft. I cannot wait to see what this new kindergarten year brings!

Hello! This is my fifth year at SGM and I am so excited to be a part of such a vibrant, thoughtful, and generous school community! I am looking forward to making many great memories of learning and playing in Kindergarten and have a great school year together! When I am not teaching, I like to be making art, food (especially desserts!) and having fun with friends and family.

Hello, I am Marie Parisot. I have been a parishioner here for 33 years and my three children attended school here and loved it! I have taught in the Archdiocese for 14 years but have recently retired. I am now excited to be back in the classroom with the children! I am so blessed and grateful to be here. I am looking forward to a wonderful year!

My name is Linda Layton. I graduated from the College of Charleston, SC with an art degree and an award as the outstanding artist of my graduating class. I later went back to receive my teaching degree from UMSL. After receiving my degree in elementary education I taught the past 24 years as the first grade teacher at St. Monica Elementary School. This year will be my second year here at SGM as a first grade teacher and I am so happy to be back!!

I am happy to join Mrs. Hagerty this year in 2A! This will be my ninth year as an aide at SGM. Both of my children have gone to school here, my daughter is in 8th grade and my son is now a senior in college. My family loves to play games and go on trips with each other. When I have free time I like to read books and I love to cook. 

Hi!  I'm Mrs. Young and this is my 22nd year teaching in Catholic education. I absolutely LOVE being a teacher! I have a terrific husband named Brett.  I also have three grown children, Alyssa, Daniel, and Jake. They are the light of my life!  I love animals of all kinds and have two Golden Retrievers, Leo and Stanley, and a foster fail pup named Z. Here is a fun fact about me- I taught kindergarten for fifteen years at SGM and then moved up to first grade.  I loved kindergarten and am enjoying the new adventure that first grade is bringing to my life. My husband likes to joke that I finally graduated from kindergarten. HA!

Hi there! I'm Mrs. Green. This is my 6th year at SGM.  I have three kids.  Pierce is a senior at Kirkwood High School, Eiley is a freshman at St. Joseph Academy and Arden is a 6th grader here at SGM.  My kids and I love to remember and talk about the dad and husband who passed away earlier this year from a long battle with cancer.  SGM school and community has been our ROCK through everything! And, we never like to leave our 8 year old Boston Terrier out of things.  She keeps us on our toes.  The kids and I are finding new things that we like to do in our spare time and are simply thankful for each other.

Hello, my name is Mrs. Hagerty. This is my 4th year teaching at SGM and I am so excited for another amazing year in 2nd grade! This is my 19th year teaching in Catholic education. I love teaching in a Catholic school. When I am not at school, my family and I enjoy camping,hiking, and exploring outdoors. 

Hi! My name is Mrs. Joan Reddy-Scalzitti! Please call me Mrs. R-S. I am excited to be part of the SGM community as the 2B aide! I got married last summer and together my new husband and I have 9 kids, 9 grandkids, and 109 nieces and nephews! I have been a teacher for 20 plus years and am looking forward to helping the 2nd graders learn and grow in faith and academics! For fun I like to bike, hike, read, and travel.

Hello!  My name is Annie Wunderlich and this is my first year teaching at St. Gerard Majella, but overall, my 24th year of teaching.  I am certified in the areas of Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education, as well as a certified Religion teacher.  I have taught both Kindergarten and Second Grade in the past, but when I'm not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my parents, 2 brothers, and nieces and nephews.  I am an avid gardener and enjoy being out in the summer sunshine!

I feel so fortunate to be in the position as the Primary Resource teacher.  I am here to collaborate with teachers and parents in order to support their students  with academic, social and behavioral needs.  This is my 13th year at SGM and I previously taught second grade here.  I have been teaching for over 20 years with primary students.  I received my undergrad at Mizzou and my Masters of Teaching at Webster University.   My family and I are also parishioners at SGM and we have four sons ranging in age from 17 to 27.   A fun fact about me is that I also went to school at St. Gerard Majella!  I have experienced many great changes taking place with our school and parish over the past 40 years!  In my free time I love to spend time with family and friends, relax with a good book, and work in my yard.
