INTRODUCTION

Hi all! I am Pam Smith and I teach fifth grade at Sacred Heart. This is my twenty-sixth year of teaching all right here. I began teaching third and fourth grades, then taught kindergarten for over twenty years, and now am beginning my third year teaching fifth grade. I really enjoyed teaching the kindergartners for many years, however, the challenge of fifth grade has been just as enjoyable. I am married and have three daughters (all Sacred Heart graduates) in college.
