Mrs. Mary Hardy, PreK-4

“Make learning fun at all grade levels and always do your best.”

Education
BA in Elementary Education, K-8 Certificate, Level 1 Certificate in Catechesis
Glassboro State College

Experience
I have 21 years of teaching experience with 12 years in PreK-4. Previously taught 4th and 5th Grade Science, as well as a Self-Contained 5th Grade.

Extracurricular
Environmental Club and 24 Club (When I taught 5th Grade); Middle States Coordinator, Sunshine Club

Honors/Awards
Diocese of Camden Certificates for Teaching (10 and 15 years)

Special Training
CPR Certified

My Classroom is Special Because:
1) We are a family and our classroom is our home
2) We have classroom pets (turtles and fish)
3) We make learning fun and we like to get messy
4) We see the world from the eyes of a four-year-old
5) Most importantly, we center our day around doing our best job for Jesus!

What Inspired Me to be a Teacher?
My parents put my feet upon this path, but it was God who put me where I was supposed to be. He place me with wonderful mentors and colleagues along the way. They inspired me to be the best teacher I can be. Teaching pre-kindergarten is a gift. Each day is filled with adventure, excitement and laughter. To quote a poster in my room, “A day without laughter is a day wasted.” There is no place I’d rather be.

Perspective
In PreK-4, we have learned that “life happens.” We support our students and their families when bumps in the road arise. We let them know that we are with them on their journey. If they need prayer, a hug, an encouraging word, or guidance…we are in this together. We are a family. We are St. Michael.

A Little About Myself…
I am a convert. I have a daughter, Ellen (27 years old); a son, Nick (31 years old); and a daughter-in-law, Megan. I have two cats—John Cena and Mojo Jo-Jo. I love football (Philadelphia Eagles fan) and I like to hula dance.
