Mrs. Winkeler's Bio
I am so excited to be back teaching Kindergarten at OLP! I taught Kindergarten for 5 years and 1 year of 3rd grade before staying home with my first born. When my oldest started Kindergarten at Presentation, I went back to work at OLP ECC, where I worked as a Pre-K teacher for 10 years.
I have been a parishoner of Presentation for 44 years. I was married at OLP, my children were baptized and attended OLP and I currently have two children attending OLP.
My husband Paul is a teacher at Rockhurst High School. We have three children. Our oldest daughter, Mary Ellen, graduated from OLP and currently attends STA. Amelia, is an 8th grader at OLP and our youngest John, is a 6th grader at OLP.
When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my children at their extracurricular activities or with our dog Luna.
I love teaching Kindergarten because everyday is different. I am able to see such growth and change over the school year. I hope to instill not only a love of academic learning in your child, but a love of Jesus. I love teaching at OLP because I am able to share my beliefs and faith with my students. Teaching in a Catholic school allows me to be the hands, voice and heart of Jesus. I look forward to a wonderful school year!
