Miss Amy Evans

My name is Amy Evans.  I teach STEM at Holy Cross Academy. I earned my BSEd in Early Childhood Education at West Chester University and my MAEd in Administration and Supervision at Georgian Court University.

My certifications include:

• NJ State Teacher, Supervisor and Principal
• Level 2 Google Educator
• PLTW certified instructor - Launch and Gateway

As a STEM teacher, my main goal is to encourage students to think critically and use their knowledge and available tools to solve problems. Students often doubt that they can create solutions on their own, but when they are encouraged to try and then succeed, their self-confidence goes through the roof!

In the STEM lab, students in Grades K through 8: 

• practice keyboarding proficiency
• build and utilize Google Tools
• learn coding through https://code.org/,scratch and more
• create, learn and build through PLTW STEM curriciulum https://www.pltw.org/
• practice effective research techniques 
• create and present visual presentations
• 3D design and printing

Working in Catholic school has given me the opportunity to help students learn and grow in both knowledge and faith. I am thankful to work in a community that is more than just a school - it feels like an extended family.
