placement spotlight: Marian Middle School

"Marian is a roller-coaster ride of a placement! In the months that I've been here I've learned so much about education in St. Louis, I've challenged myself to be a better leader, and I've recognized my desire to walk with students as they push themselves to grow. Everyday is a different adventure that moves so quickly as the girls continue to surprise me in great ways."  -Eleanor, Loretto Volunteer '14-15
