St. Therese School

“Every year, the St. Therese Knights of Columbus asks me to select a Teacher of the Year. With so many talented teachers on our staff it is not an easy decision. This year's St. Therese Knights of Columbus Parochial Teacher of the Year is Ms. Alexa Muller. Ms. Muller has been a valued member of the faculty for the past seven years. Ms. Muller teaches third grade and I have found her enthusiasm, her innovativeness, and her genuine concern for her students to be exemplary. Ms. Muller was honored by the St. Therese Knights of Columbus on Divine Mercy Sunday, April 16, at the 10:30am mass, St. Therese Church, Succasunna.” –Timothy Dunnigan, Principal St. Therese School, Succasunna, NJ

This annual Pet Rescue Service Project began in 2022 when three fourth grade students saw the need to support the organizations that focus on saving at-risk cats/dogs from overcrowded animal shelters, nationwide. Those dedicated students have grown to a team of four, all now in fifth grade... they continue to inspire STS students, faculty and staff to come together in Service. With two trucks full of donated items and monetary donations, thank you to all who supported NorthStar Pet Rescue!

Mrs. Jolyn Henderson, mother of Jared Irwin, STS Class of 2020, recently reached out to STS about "Canines for Christ". As a result, she and her beautiful White Retriever, Hunter, have joined STS in our March for Life, visited STS on #CSW23 Thursday, popped into the playground at recess. STS students, faculty, and staff have enjoyed their visits to STS. Starting Monday, February 27 and continuing through June, Canines for Christ via Mrs. Henderson and Hunter, will be visiting STS classrooms for various short programs such as reading time, support time, play time.
