Hi!! I'm Stephanie Morgan and I am so excited to be teaching my sixth year in Preschool!! I absolutley love teaching here at St. Joe's. Not only did I graduate from SJS, but now I have a five year old son here in Kindergarten too! I graduated from WKU with an elementary education major and I received my Master's in Elementary Guidance. This is my ninth year to teach school and I can not imagine doing anything else. This is what I believe I was meant to do!!!! I also have a wonderful husband and two beautiful children, a son that is 5 1/2 and a daughter that is 2 years old.

Birthdays Birthday celebrations are a huge part of a child's life. Here at Preschool, we feel it is important to make sure each child feels he or she is special. When your child's birthday approaches, talk with a teacher to discuss bringing in a small goody to share with the class. Birthday posters can also be made to share with the class. Pictures from the child's life should be included to show their life milestones. |
