Learning is investigation, awareness, discovery.
Mrs. Jo Clausen, Third Grade Teacher
Learning is a lifelong process to know God, one’s self, and the world. Learning is a process to develop one’s gifts and talents in understanding and satisfaction as each person fits into family and world making their contribution to each.
Mrs. Gretta Wheeler, Fourth Grade Teacher
Learning is the intellectual capacity to absorb truth. It is a gift which one receives…Learning involves using the mind, delving deeply into truth, seeking wisdom.
Sr. Mary Clare, O.P., Fourth Grade Teacher
Learning is growing, and we grow everyday, every moment. God has a perfect plan for us, and everyday that plan is presented to us for us to discover.
Sonia Rivera, Spanish Teacher
Learning embodies change. When a person is able to look at a problem differently and respond in a positive manner, learning has occurred.
Kathleen Walsh, Sixth Grade Teacher
Learning happens throughout the day, throughout life, whether an individual realizes it or not.
Jessie Sutherland, Music Teacher
Learning is the light that guides us…Learning permeates every aspect of our daily lives. We are constantly acquiring knowledge of self and others. Learning is not just restricted to an academic atmosphere or a textbook. We learn through all of our senses.
Libby Lawler, Kindergarten Teacher
Learning is the process of growing and becoming. It is also mysterious in its individual process relative to the individual. The teacher’s task is to “demystify” each student’s learning style…and thus the teacher's challenge to inspire each child with the thirst for knowledge and the love of lifelong learning.
Mary Ryan, First Grade Teacher
Part of learning is the willingness to accept that one does not know everything.
Norma Treco, Second Grade Teacher
Learning comes from both specific classroom instruction, teachers, textbooks, and lesson plans, as well as from day to day interaction with others who may provide insight or information which is new.
Kim Perroots, School Counselor
Learning is becoming more free.
Sr. Mary Martha, O.P., Religion Teacher
Learning is a building process from the basic to the intricate.
Cyndie Duermeier, Fifth Grade Teacher
Learning is trying something you haven’t before, discovering facts and information, gaining knowledge, forming opinions, building experience through relationships, making mistakes.
Annamarie Brachfeld, Language Arts Teacher
