Children want the same thing we want. To laugh, to be challenged, to be entertained, and delighted.
— Dr. Seuss

Meet Miss Fernitz!

Hi everyone! My name is Mary Fernitz and this is my second year teaching 1st grade at St. Norbert. I graduated from the University of Dayton with a Bachelors of Science in Education with a license in PreK-Grade 5 Education and an additional license as an Intervention Specialist for PreK-Grade 5 serving students with mild to moderate disabilities. I am looking forward to getting to know you and your children and hope to create a welcoming and loving classroom.

When I am not in school, you can find me enjoying the outdoors, reading a book, or playing pickleball. I also love to be relaxing on the couch watching movies or spending time with family and friends!

I look forward to a great year!

-Mary
