Eileen Reddy
DIRECTOR OF SUMMER CAMP
TEACHER, PRE-SCHOOL
Eileen Reddy joined the St. Bartholomew's staff in September of 2004 as a St. Bartholomew Community Preschool teacher. In the summer of 2008 she took on a second position with the church as the Director of Summer Camp at St. Bart's.
Eileen grew up in Pelham, NY and attended college at the University of Hartford where she began her path as an educator. She spent three years tutoring and mentoring in the inner city schools of Hartford, CT. "I loved it. It was a challenge, and I love challenges. Tutoring in Hartford was a great experience and I learned a lot."
About working here at St. Bart's, Eileen says, " I love St. Bart's! There is a sense of warmth and community here that I haven't quite felt anywhere else. Teaching is amazing because not one day goes by where I don't learn something new. Working with children is, by far, the most rewarding profession."
Currently Eileen is attending Mercy College where she will be graduating in May of 2009. She will be receiving a Masters in Early Childhood Education.
