About Me

Name: Mrs. Liz Allbright

Education: I have my BA in Spanish with a minor in Italian from the University of Dallas, as well as partial completion of an elementary education degree from Alverno College.

Teaching Experience: I taught K5 for 3 years on Milwaukee’s South side in a Catholic School with a predominately Hispanic student body.

 I then chose to be at home with my 6 children to be their first teacher, during which time I also taught Spanish in multiple different capacities:

•  as a private tutor for local high school students as well as adults seeking to learn Spanish,

•  teaching small classes of homeschooled students, 

•  5 years as the teacher for Brookfield Academy’s after-school Spanish program

• long term sub for their elementary Spanish teacher at B.A..

   I have had the privilege of traveling to Spain twice, Ecuador, Honduras, and Mexico. I was happy to help out during the 22/23 school year for an extended substitute position in the St. Joes Spanish classroom, and fell in love again with teaching, the students of St. Joseph and the Spanish language!  

Family Life: My husband Robbie and I have been parish members of St. Joe’s since 1999! We started bringing my aging grandparents to Mass here and then really ended up loving the school and parish community. Four of our 6 children are St. Joe’s graduates, and the youngest two are current students at the day school.

Interests & Hobbies: I am passionate about our faith, art, foreign languages and travel. I love to read, paint, draw, play board and card games, hike, bird-watch with my daughters, and road-trip. I also enjoy shooting hoops in the driveway and I have recently become hooked on strength training at the gym.I have been a catechist at St. Joe's and serve on the Formation Committee.   I am always looking for ways to incorporate our Catholic faith into the fabric of family life!
