Mrs. Karr received a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from Baldwin-Wallace College and is certified to teach in kindergarten through eighth grade.  She has completed professional development courses from Lorain County Community College, Baldwin-Wallace College, and Ashland University.

Our all-day kindergarten strives and maintain a healthy, well-rounded educational atmosphere based on the teachings of Jesus.  Our curriculum combines play-learning situations with academic readiness to ensure physical, intellectual, emotional, and social maturation in a Christian atmosphere of caring and respect.

Our program is based on the Diocesan and State curriculum standards.  Children receive instruction in religion, reading, mathematics, handwriting, communication skills, social studies, science, health, music, art, physical education, and computer.  Our day-to-day experiences encourage the children to be responsible and independent learners.
