Hello! My name is Jennifer Smith and I feel very blessed to be joining a staff and community like St. Stephen! I graduated from SIU Carbondale with a B.S. in Elementary Education and also have endorsements in Science, Social Science and Language Arts. I have 18 years of teaching experience within the St. Louis Archdiocese. I started my career at Sacred Heart Villa on the Hill, spent several years at St. Ambrose on the HIll and most recently taught at Holy Child in Arnold.  I have taught Pre-K, Kindergarten, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th grade.  After transitioning to intermediate grades in the last few years, I've learned that is where I belong!
