Why St. Anne's-Belfield?
I am proud to be part of St. Anne’s-Belfield School and the School’s commitment to developing compassionate citizens and visionary leaders. I feel so thankful to be part of this kind, friendly and vibrant educational community.
I believe that I am helping our students to have meaningful opportunities each and every day to help them learn to regulate their emotions, develop their sense of empathy and compassion, and solve problems productively. I have a Masters of Art in Creative Arts Therapy and have worked as a Museum Educator in New York and Virginia. I like to enrich our students learning through hands-on projects to enhance their scholastic experience.

Why St. Anne's-Belfield?
St. Anne's-Belfield is a close-knit school. The small class sizes allow teachers to truly get to know the students well to allow individuality and creativity to shine.
Teaching lower elementary students is a great joy. Everything is new and exciting to them. It is wonderful to light a spark and watch it grow.

Why St. Anne's-Belfield?
I wanted to be part of a community that placed as much value on teaching students to be kind citizens and caring members of a community as much as a strong academic program.
I enjoy getting to know each student's individual learning style and then using that information to challenge and empower them as learners.

It is a great community to work and grow in. I feel supported in my career and growth.
Mr. Connors's teaching philosophy is simply: BALANCE!

Kim Cox

PS-4 Visual Arts Teacher
M.A.E., Boston University
VAEA Northern Region Art Teacher of the Year
Why St. Anne's-Belfield?
I came to St. Anne's from the Public School because I could really get to know kids--I taught in more than 3 schools and had over 1,000 students! At St. Anne's I have taught fewer students and really gotten to know them well and have even taught some of my former students' children--what an honor!
I get to do art and I get to share in the joy of creation with students! I love that I get to make art, see young people every day, work with passionate professional colleagues, and come to a beautiful place. I am able to get the supplies for Visual Arts that are needed to help make students' experiences in art meaningful and well-rounded.
