Why I Like Teaching at Shrine
I love teaching at Shrine Catholic Grade School because our school is founded in faith and truth. Here we are free to speak the name of Jesus in all we say and do. I feel blessed that the Lord has called me to teach children the love of music and that we can do so by praising His name. I hope to plant seeds of faith in every child I come in contact with in my time teaching here.
