Mrs. Annamarie Boyle / Junior High Science Teacher

Mrs. Boyle is thrilled to serve the community of St. Isaac Jogues as a junior high science teacher.

Mrs. Boyle has been the recipient of two British Petroleum- Energy for Science Education grants and the ESP- Energizing Student Potential STEM grant. Her Bachelor’s Degree was earned in Education and Master’s Degree was completed in Special Education.
