Background
Welcome to St. Vincent de Paul Preschool!
Our theme for the school year is:
"Do Small Things With Great Love"
This is my 20th year at St. Vincent de Paul School, and my tenth year as a preschool teacher. I previously worked as a teacher associate in kindergarten and first grade. Prior to that I taught preschool for over 10 years. I received my Bachelor of Science from UNL and my Master of Arts in Teaching from the College of Saint Mary.
