St. Mary's Celebrates Miss Duwe!

Today our school had the opportunity to celebrate the achievements of a wonderful teacher at our school! Miss Duwe teaches religion for grades 1-8 and science in the upper grades and was named the Outstanding Catholic Educator for the month of April! I sneaked around her room this afternoon to mark evidence of her wonderful classroom.  

Last supper dioramas made out of egg cartons!

Miss Duwe is one of those teacher who is the last to leave school and the first to arrive the next day. She must have a house full of toilet paper rolls and egg cartons because it seems like they are never in short supply when she is around. 



Every year the third and fourth graders look forward to putting on the living stations of the cross the week before Holy Week. I can't even imagine the hours of planning and preparation that go into pulling this off. 

These are just a few examples of what makes Miss Duwe a wonderful teacher. I feel so lucky to have her as a colleague and friend!
