MEET mISS. DONALDSON
Hello, students and parents! I am Ms. Donaldson and I am so happy to be apart of the St. Agnes family. This will be my fourth year as a 4th-grade teacher as well as the Lacrosse Coach for the Lady Stags! I attended college at Long Island University, where I graduated with a degree in Childhood Education and a National Championship Title in Women's Lacrosse.
Prior to St. Agnes, I worked as a substitute teacher and head JV Girls Lacrosse Coach in the West Islip School District. I have also dedicated my time as a Pre-K teacher at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Academy of Brooklyn. Fourth grade is such a special year, and I feel so blessed to be apart of it. It is my mission to instill a love for learning in my students.I am looking forward to a fantastic year! If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me!
