At St. Margaret’s School, every child is nurtured by dedicated educators who inspire a lifelong love of learning and faith. Our teachers are more than just instructors; they are mentors, guiding young minds toward their full potential.
“In 50 years I will remember that Miss Petro is the best teacher because she helps us learn more things and helps us be holy,” said Creed, a first-grader. Creed’s words echo the sentiments of countless St. Margaret’s students who have been fortunate enough to experience the transformative power of our faculty.
For nearly four decades, the legendary Miss Petro has embodied the St. Margaret’s spirit in her first-grade classroom. While the world around her has evolved, her unwavering commitment to fostering intellectual curiosity, spiritual growth, and character development has remained steadfast.
“One day she told us that we’re all smart, but we’re not smarter than each other. She means that we’re all good at math and she wants us to learn more stuff, but nobody is smarter than each other. Miss Petro wants us to not brag, but she wants us to get smarter and feel happy,” shared Creed. This emphasis on humility, collaboration, and a joy for learning is a cornerstone of the St. Margaret’s educational philosophy.
Miss Petro is just one example of the exceptional educators who make St. Margaret’s a truly special place. Our teachers create a nurturing environment where students thrive academically, spiritually, and socially. We invite you to discover the St. Margaret’s difference.
