Michelle at her first teaching job,
Lourdes Central Catholic in Nebraska City,
with her good friend Sally.
As we celebrateNational Catholic Schools Week 2013
I'm proud to say that this year two of our daughters are teaching Middle School at Catholic schools!
After two wonderful years at Lourdes Central Catholic in Nebraska City, Michelle is at St. Charles Borromeo Catholic School in Oklahoma City, and Anamaría is at Michelle's alma mater, All Saints Catholic School in Norman.
I have always been surrounded by teachers, all levels, all types of schools -- mother, father, brother, husband, father and mother in-law -- and now daughters and daughter in law!
Seeing first hand the hard work, energy, time-commitment and faithfulness of these family members who are teachers, I've always had a special place in my prayers for all teachers.
Often underpaid, those who have made teaching their vocation do so because they're answering a special call to serve, and to spread the Gospel through their lives. This goes doubly so for Catholic school teachers, who work extremely hard, often get paid less, and still go the extra mile for their students.

What does a Catholic School teacher look like?

I love Catholic schools because of their teachers!
