I am looking forward to a new school year! The warm, welcoming, faith filled environment makes it such a wonderful place to teach preschool. When I'm not in the classroom, I enjoy gardening, game shows, shopping, and road trips with my family.

I am so excited to be part of the preschool team here at STS. I love being able to inspire and nurture young children's learning. I believe that providing children with love, positivity, and kindness helps them reach their fullest potential.I look forward to sharing my experience and passion for working with preschoolers.

When I am not in the classroom, I enjoy taking vacations to Disney World with my family, going to the beach, and movie nights at home.

Mrs. Kathy Sfikas

Preschool Teacher

Room 19

I am married with three children and one grandchild. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Applied Psychology and a Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Education, with endorsements in Special Education and English as a Second Language.

After 18 years in Human Resources, I felt called to pursue a more meaningful career in education. While earning my master’s degree, I worked as a full-time teacher assistant in a self-contained special education classroom. I have now been teaching for 12 years and am excited to join the STS community and, especially, the Preschool Team. I look forward to being part of a community that shares my values, passion, and sense of purpose.

Fun Fact: I married into a Greek family! I’m Polish and Ukrainian and, wanting to learn another language, taught myself to speak Greek - somewhat fluently!

I love being an educator, especially with our youngest students! I started teaching in 2000, and have taught kindergarten, been a stay at home mom for 13 years, and I have been back in the classroom teaching preschool for the past 7 years.

I look forward to getting to know my new students!

I joined the St. Theresa faculty team as a substitute teacher, however preschool stole my heart. It is a joy to see our youngest students come to school each morning with curiosity and an eagerness to learn.

I have been a parishioner of St. Theresa Parish most of my life and am a firm believer in Catholic education.
