JANINE ARTEGLIER
DIR. OF SPECIAL ED
I am thrilled to be a part of the Mother Teresa family. I graduated from Immaculata University with an undergraduate degree in early childhood, elementary, and special education. I have my master's degree in education along with my reading specialist certification from Cabrini University. I taught second grade for six years. When I am not in the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family and coaching basketball at the Agnes Irwin School. I am looking forward to working with you and your child this school year!

YOU ARE HASA.
If you are part of an MTC family, you are part of our Home & School Association. And being part of HASA is a good thing. Now all you have to do is raise your hand and come have some fun!
Our mission revolves around the advancement of Catholic education and the welfare of all the school children of this parish, the promotion of parent-school activities to increase interest in educational and civic affairs, and enhancement of the parents’ and teachers’ role in the education process by providing an opportunity to work together for the good of our children. Volunteerism is part of the Catholic School experience, and (trust us!) you will likely find you get more out than you put in.

WE NEED YOU.
To see our mission through, we rely on the ever-amazing stream of generosity that pours in from our MTC families in the form of time and effort. Donating your time and talents can take many forms. You might become a homeroom parent, where you would work with the teacher to provide fun activities, classroom parties and special events throughout the year. You could join or chair a committee that manages the various fundraising and social events we have during the year. It is a perfect opportunity to meet other parents/community members and socialize while raising money for our students and simply having fun. We ask that each of you make a commitment to get involved. You won’t regret it!
Anyone interested in becoming a board member to help shape the ever-changing landscape of the activities we provide, please contact Ms. Pagan at christine.pagan@mtcschool.org.
UPCOMING EVENTS.
National Catholic Schools (CSW) Week (January 31 – February 6) is the annual celebration of Catholic education in the United States. The theme for National Catholic Schools Week 2021 is “Catholic Schools: Faith. Excellence. Service.” Schools typically observe the annual celebration week with Masses, open houses and other activities for students, families, parishioners and community members. Through these events, schools focus on the value Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to our church, our communities and our nation.
This year will look a little different than years past but our mission is still to celebrate our Catholic education with one another however we can. Please check back here as well as the HASA Facebook page for updates to the calendar of events. Learn more.
Keep Families Connected Events are in the works. HASA is planning a bunch of virtual events as well as contactless family service activities that we hope everyone will take part in. More details to come!
NEWS.
“Anchored In Faith” Pins coming soon!
This year has been a trying one for everyone. It is important to remember that through our faith and commitment to our school and church communities, we have a connection that cannot be broken. To celebrate and highlight our unity, HASA will be offering pins and charms that can be proudly displayed. Here’s a sneak peek at the pins. Information on how to get yours will be available soon.
