Mrs. Christine Crowder is excited to serve in her new role as a Pre-K 3 teacher as she begins her first year at St. Francis de Sales Catholic School. Having attended Catholic schools growing up, she has a passion for Catholic education and is blessed to be able to share Christ’s love with her school community every day. Knowing that she wanted to teach in a Catholic school, Mrs. Crowder  thought, “What better place to receive her training than at a Catholic university?” Mrs. Crowder holds a bachelor’s degree in history and political science and a master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Mount St. Mary’s University in Emmitsburg, Maryland. Go Mountaineers! Mrs. Crowder is thankful that she gets to work at her dream job every day! 

Mrs. Crowder enjoys spending her spare time with her husband, Mark, and their daughter Molly Emma, their cat Bella and dog Tater Tot. They also love serving the youth together at their home parish, Prince of Peace.  Mrs. Crowder enjoys traveling to new and familiar places, going out to eat, history, politics, and spending time with her family and friends.
