Hi!  My name is Denise McMonagle and this will be my 6th year teaching at St. Dorothy's School.  I live in Havertown with my husband and 4 children.  Elizabeth, my oldest, left for college this year- Go Villanova, Jimmy is a junior at LaSalle College HIgh School, Laura will be a freshman at Archbishop Carroll and Jenny will be in 5th grade at St. Pius X School.  As you can see our family is very busy.  You will often find me on the sideline cheering on my children in their many sports and activities.

Besides being a mom I enjoy reading, travelling, family movie nights, and any activity outdoors.  This summer I attempted a ropes course in Atlanta and made it to level 2!  I am always looking for something new to try.

I graduated from Boston College with a BS in Accounting and St. Joseph's University with a MS in Elementary Education and Reading Specialist Certification.   My passion truly is to work with children and young adults and help them realize their potential.  It is a wonderful gift to be able to work with the students of St. Dorothy and be part of the community.

I am looking forward to a wonderful year filled with many exciting challenges and new adventures.  My goal is to help the students grow spiritually, academically and socially while using their talents to become the best they can be.
