I am grateful that I have been given the opportunity to work at St. Michael’s School.  I retired in June, 2009 from the Haverhill School system.  I began my 39 year career in Haverhill as a 4th grade teacher and held several different positions including middle school guidance counselor, school psychologist, and special education coordinator.   For the last nine years, I was a guidance counselor at Haverhill High School, which was extremely rewarding.  I enjoyed working with my students for 4 years to prepare them for life after high school.

Last summer I saw a notice in the church bulletin seeking retired teachers to assist with students at the school.  After a year of retirement I felt that this would be the perfect opportunity for me. After working this past with Mrs. Caffrey and Mrs. Grant in grade two, I decided to return to my position as it is a privilege to be part of this team.  I am enjoying working with the students and staff.  St. Michael’s School has exceeded my expectations.  The environment is warm, nurturing, and academically challenging.

I have lived in North Andover and have been a member of the parish all my life. I am married to Michael and we are the proud parents of three children, Dan who is married to Carrie, Jack and Katy.  We have been blessed with two grandchildren.
