Marie J. Kelly

Marie was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, before receiving her B.A. in elementary education and reading from Saint Mary’s College in Notre Dame, Indiana. She has experience teaching in a variety of PK-12 classroom settings but found her passion in teaching early elementary students. Marie was first introduced to the rich tradition of a Catholic liberal education when her school began the process of renewal, diving more deeply into what the Catholic Church teaches about education. She has been blessed to teach in two Catholic Liberal Arts schools, one in Michigan and the other in Massachusetts. Marie is passionate about helping inspire and renew Catholic educators in the rich tradition of the Church, especially in the meaningful integration of prayer in the classroom. Together, may we provide students with an authentic encounter with the transcendental Good, True, and Beautiful in a joyful and faithful Catholic environment.
