About me:
My name is Mrs. Mary Fresta and I am delighted to continue my teaching career at Waldron Mercy Academy. I am a proud graduate of Merion Mercy Academy, I love the mercy mind of education. After receiving my degree from Immaculate University, I met and married my husband, Louis, of 30 years and raised our 5 children. My first year at Waldron Mercy Academy was spent as a substitute teacher subbing in grades Pre-K through eighth grade, I was thrilled when offered the position of 7/8th grade Religion teacher. This is my 5th year teaching at Waldron. In my free time, I love spending time on the beach , traveling and listening to music.
Teaching mission: My mission is to create a classroom where all students feel they are part of my family of learning. My promise to my students is to ALWAYS believe in them and to let them know I am here to support them. In my eyes, they are capable of great things, and I will always listen, and NEVER give up on them, because their success is my success.
