...Hello St. Dorothy families! My name is Candice Werner, and I am excited to get to know your child this year! While this is my first year here, I have been teaching for several years. I graduated from West Chester University in 2003 with a degree in Elementary Education. My first classroom was in St. Thomas the Apostle teaching 7th and 8th grade. After having my daughter, I took some time off to run the preschool she was attending. After having two more children, teaching was calling me back. The owners of the school and I went to the Board of Education in Harrisburg and had a Private Licensed Kindergarten approved within the preschool. I taught the Kindergarten for four years, and then took some time off to have another baby! Instead of heading back to Kindergarten, I found myself searching for a position with the upper grade students again. And that is where St. Dorothy's comes in! I am looking forward to a great school year doing what I love most!
Some things about me:
I have 4 amazing children, an awesome husband, and a very wild, little puppy named Ozzie. Marleigh is 11, Holden is 9, Emery is 7, and Bowen is 1. I was born in Drexel Hill, but we moved to Garnet Valley when I was 4, and I still live in Garnet Valley now. I love spending time with my family, especially down the shore! Going out to dinner, going to the movies, and spending lots of money at Target are also some of my favorite things to do!
