Miss Porter

Hello! My name is Miss Porter and I am so excited to teach second grade this year at St. Gregory. I am looking forward to the sacraments, growing closer together in faith, and utilizing our faith to strengthen the learning environment around us.

About Me

I recently graduated from Penn State with a degree in Elementary and Early Childhood Education and a Minor in Special Education.

I live in Wexford and went to Saint Alexis for grade school and North Catholic for high school, and am so excited to be teaching in a Catholic elementary school! I love to travel, ski, play sports, and spend time with my family. I am very outgoing and love to meet new people. In my free time I like to work out, read, and play with my dogs.

Some of my past experiences working with children include student teacher in a kindergarten classroom in Tyrone, PA, teacher at Bright Horizon Childhood Development Center, camp counselor, and nanny. These experiences have taught me so much about becoming a teacher and understanding how young minds work. These roles have only enhanced my desire and passion of being a teacher.

I have a lot of fun ideas for lesson plans, interactive activities, and crafts for the students. I want to make this school year fun and exciting for second grade and cannot wait to see their growth over the year! I am especially excited to guide your children through the sacraments and watch them deepen their faith. I am so blessed to be a part of this very special time of their lives!

I am so excited for this year and know that it is going to be one I will never forget!
