Teacher Testimonials

Immaculate Conception School is the Good News in Catholic education in Morris and wherever its current and former students travel.  I.C.S. is a special faith community. 

Fifth grade teacher Rhonda Johnson says, "Children's Mass at I.C.S. is my favorite part of the week.  Hearing the voices of the children say the Lord's Prayer and sing like angels is something that is priceless.  Children at I.C.S. are not only prepared for academics when they graduate, they have the confidence to lead."

Mrs. Loreen Vlk, I.C.S. seventh grade teacher relates, "The best thing about teaching at I.C.S. is the opportunity to build community.  We are a family who share joys and sadness, anxieties and prayers.  We live the Good News daily."

Kindergarten teacher, Cindy Belt says, "I am fortunate to be able to spend my days helping children develop a love for learning encompassed in God's word and our Catholic faith.  I am thankful that I have a job that 'makes my heart smile' and keeps me connected to my faith!"

Eighth grade teacher, Mrs. Janine Petric also shared her love of teaching at I.C.S.   "I love that we can pray for whomever or whatever whenever we want.  The support of everyone for everyone is wonderful."

Sixth grade teacher, Mrs. Janelle Aldrich sums it up by saying "The children and the people I work with bring joy to my life ... our school is one big family spreading the Good News of Christ."
