Hello and welcome! My name is Jeannette Goodwin and I teach first grade at Saint Jude School. I graduated from Temple University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education. Throughout my teaching career I have taught children in developmental kindergarten, kindergarten, and first grade. I consider myself truly blessed to be a partner with families in the education of their children. As such, I take that responsibility seriously. I am continually deepening my knowledge of best practices in order to provide the best learning environment for your children.

As a teacher, I strive to make a difference in the lives of my students each and every day. I believe every child has God-given gifts and it is my privilege to help them on their journey of learning and discovery. Our classroom is one in which all children are valued, mistakes are opportunities to learn and grow, and the "Power of Yet" holds a lot of power.

The students in our class will become readers, writers, mathematicians, and explorers; they will believe in themselves and each other; their time together will be full of positivity and growth; they will experience a year full of faith and joy. The 2023-2024 school year will be a fantastic one!
