Fourth Grade

Krista Kreidt

I am very excited to be teaching at St. Theresa!  This will be my seventh year teaching within Catholic education, I love being able to combine my passion for teaching and the faith!  Seeing students grow not only academically and socially, but spiritually as well has been such a blessing.  I am looking forward to meeting my students and assisting them on their journey through fourth grade.  It is my hope that I can help to inspire each student to be the light of Christ!

I grew up on a farm in rural North Dakota, then attended the University of Mary in Bismarck, ND to receive my degree in Elementary and Early Childhood Education.  I received my masters in Elementary Education through the University of South Dakota.  Previously I lived in South Dakota, but I am excited for a new journey here in Iowa!  Outside of school I enjoy spending time outdoors, baking (sourdough is a favorite hobby), reading, and spending time with friends and family.

Mary Pane

Hi! My name is Mary Pane, and this is my first year teaching at not only St. Theresa, but in general! I graduated this past Spring with a degree in Elementary Education from the University of Iowa (Go Hawks!). I am so excited to be joining the STCS community, and cannot wait to watch my students grow both academically and spiritually. Growing up, I attended St. Anthony’s Catholic School, and have spent the past three summers on staff at Catholic Youth Camp. I am so blessed for the opportunity to return to my roots in Catholic Schools, and to share my faith with the students. In my free time, I enjoy crafting, thrifting, hammocking, and spending time with friends and family.
