8th Grade Math - Wade

Teacher: Mrs. Cathy Wade, cwade@stclarepdx.org

This is my first year teaching math at St. Clare School and I am delighted to be here!

In my 15 years in education, I have taught at St. Thomas More and Christ the King in the Portland Archdiocese and at St. John's in the Seattle Archdiocese.

I believe that education is the process of uncovering, discovering - seeing with new eyes the wonders about us. The greatest joy for me in teaching is to be part of the "Aha!" moments in the classroom.  My role is to organize, plan and prepare so that I can support and challenge students to make connections, to become competent, confident mathematicians.

I look forward to working with you!
