First Grade

Welcome to the First Grade Home Page!

Ms. Nicole Martinez couldn’t be any happier to be the new first grade teacher for the upcoming school year. She knew she wanted to be a teacher since she was a kid. She was inspired by her grandma to pursue teaching, watching her make lesson plans, checking test
papers and doing instructional materials every night. Education has always been a part of her family and now it compliments her life tremendously.

She attended one of the prestigious universities in the Philippines, Centro Escolar University where she earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education major in Special Education. She always have a heart for children with special needs and helping them learn about how special they are in God’s eyes.

Attending to Catholic school growing up, it means so much to her to be able to help children grow in their faith and develop as members of a faith community. She has a true passion for working with young learners and recognizes the potential in every child. . Helping each child progress in all areas of their development is a challenge that she is honored to accept daily. She strives to make a class environment where students are encouraged each day to love each other and God through acts of kindness, empathy, and respect.

Finally, being part of such an incredible faculty team at St Anthony is a true blessing. It is hard to find a school that values the importance of faith as much as St. Anthony does.
