Hi all! My name is Bekah, and St. Peter’s has been home to me for over 20 years now.
I became affiliated with St. Peter’s in my junior high years when my Mom was the Office Manager for the church. I’d spend summers hanging out in the youth room and walking to the beach. Right out of high school and needing a summer job before starting undergrad, I started working here as a Teacher’s Aide quite confident it would only be for a summer. I ended up loving it so much that I continued here through the bulk of my undergrad years, and then started teaching in a classroom in 2008. Since then, I’ve served at one point or another in every position here at St. Peter’s.
I currently teach the oldest Pre-K class and help where needed as Assistant Director as well. I do hold a
B.A. in Early Childhood Education, but would easily concede that the most useful source of my education has been working here with great kids, teachers and families. My goal is to have my students move into Kindergarten knowing they were loved and treasured here, as well as confident in their social and academic abilities.
Personally, I enjoy gardening, writing, singing and playing piano, photography, and road trips. I’m looking forward to getting to know all of you, and am excited for a new school year!
