Welcome to Room 5A!Dear 5th Graders and Families,
Welcome to Fifth Grade! My name is Erin McDermott, and I am so excited for this upcoming school year at St. Dorothy's!
This is my first year here at St. Dot's. Last year, I was a student teacher at Sabold Elementary School, then became a substitute teacher post graduation. I graduated from Cabrini University with a Bachelor’s of Science in Elementary and Special Education with a Minor in Environmental Science. I am also certified in the state of Pennsylvania as an elementary and special education teacher.
I have wanted to become a teacher for as long as I can remember and my passion for teaching has driven me to seek opportunities such as volunteering with Camp Guadalupe's summer camp as a young teen, being employed as a camp counselor, tutoring, and working as a teacher in pre-school. As an educator, I strive to create a supportive classroom that allows for each child to succeed. I try my best to help my students discover their own skills and talents that will build on their confidence.
In my free time, I love to read, watch the Phillies and Eagles, and spend time with friends and family!
I look forward to taking the journey of 5th Grade with your children as they learn and grow both academically and spiritually!
Please feel free to contact me at anytime throughout the school year at emcdermott@stdots.com.
Sincerely,
Miss McDermott
