Teacher: Marilyn Taylor
Teaching Assistant: Beba Oceguera

Dear Second
Grade Families,
My name is Ms. Marilyn Taylor, and I am looking very forward to a wonderful2009-2010 school year as the new Second
Grade Teacher at St. John the Baptist School!

I grew up in San Francisco, attending 12 years of Catholic school. After obtaining my California Teaching Credential
at Chico State University, I returned to San Francisco to enter the Master's Degree Program at San Francisco State
University, specializing in Education. I then followed the sun to the East Bay, and have taught Preschool through 7th Grade, with five joyful years spent in 2nd Grade. I love to learn, I love to teach, and I aspire to instill a love of learning in my students.

Second Grade is a year in which our students will demonstratetremendous academic, emotional, physical and spiritual growth. They will learn to be responsible for their work, their behavior, and their Christ-like attitude and treatment of others, while appreciating the awesome orderliness of God's amazing world.

I happily anticipate greeting my new class on the first day of school, and spending a year of love and learning together!
Wishing you a safe and blessed
summer,

Ms. Taylor
