Mrs. Francis

After teaching for 37 years, I retired at the end of the 2018-19 school year.  I spent a year subbing in Mascoutah, and realized how much I missed teaching.  I was thrilled to accept the Kindergarten position at Holy Childhood.  Kindergarten is my favorite grade.  I love seeing the growth my students make during this first formal year of school.  I’m a graduate of SIU-E with a BS in Elementary/Early Childhood Education and an MS in Reading.

When I’m not teaching, I work for the St. Louis Cardinals (when they are playing) as an usher.  I also enjoy reading, crafting, and traveling, especially to the Outer Banks in North Carolina.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.  I’m looking forward to a great year in Kindergarten.
