3rd Grade

 My name is Susan D. O'Brien and I have happily been teaching your third graders here at St. Athanasius School for over 30 years. IBefore moving to the Philadelphia area, I taught first grade in MIddletown, Connecticut. My B.A is in Elementary Education and my M. S. is in Special Education.

I was born in England and grew up in Rye, New York, a suburb of NYC.  I am married to Ronald O'Brien. When I have spare time, I love to be with my family and friends, travel, learn history, read, garden and watch the birds at my bird feeders. I am a big cat fan!  

I want the children in my class to love God, respect others, be responsible and to always be kind. I want them to learn as much as they can with the goal of becoming independent learners. I try to make learning fun and to have a classroom full of happy, learning children.

If you need to email me, please do so through the messaging on Option C or from our school email - This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. I check this daily.
