Art
| Teacher | Years Teaching | Years at OLC |
|---|---|---|
| Mrs. Karen Eggleston | 27 | 11 |
Education: Bachelor of Science, Art Education, Edinboro University of Pennsylvania; Ursuline College, Gannon University
"Students like my class because: _“It is a new adventure every time they enter the art room. They are excited to use all the materials the art room has to offer. Students over the years find that each one is capable of having a creative spirit in an environment where they are nurtured and exposed to art in their everyday lives.”
Music
| Teacher | Years Teaching | Years at OLC |
|---|---|---|
| Pamela Verity | 28 | 11 |
Education: Bachelor of Arts, Music Education, Gannon University; Bachelor of Arts, English Literature, Mercyhurst College; Choral Directing Certificate, St. Olaf College; Liturgical Music Certificate, St. Mary’s College
"The best thing about teaching is enabling young singers and players (even ones who think they are not musical) to gain confidence and self-esteem by performing, planning liturgies, working together in creative venues to discover the music within themselves: whether in notes or poetry, or form, or integrated activities. I choose to teach in a Catholic school because: _”Liturgy is very important to me, as is the assumption that all things we do flow from, through, and to God.”
Mandarin
| Teacher | Years Teaching | Years at OLC |
|---|---|---|
| Eden Chen | 1 | 1 |
Education: Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance, National Chung Chen University in Taiwan. Master of Arts in Teaching English as a Second Language, Penn State University.
"Students like my class because I make language learning fun and interesting! I believe language learning can be fun and I also believe language learning happens when students can really use that language. Therefore, I always try to integrate various kinds of activities into my teaching, such as games, group competition and singing, to help my students learning and also keep them motivated."

Physical Education
| Teacher | Years Teaching | Years at OLC |
|---|---|---|
| Mrs. Kim Hill | 30 | 1 |
Education: Bachelor of Science, Physical Education, Penn State; Master of Science, Physical Education, University of Michigan.
"The best thing about teaching physical education is seeing the students learn skills that will stay with them throughout life and hopefully help them stay fit and strong. It is important to me to teach at a Catholic school, because God is the basis for all good things! I believe that our strength comes from God, and it is a gift to teach in a faith based school."
