My name is Maria Hernandez, and this is my second year at St. Adelaide as the preschool teacher. I have been working with children for the past 25 years. I have worked for SBCUSD as a recreational aide and for YMCA as an after-school youth leader. I have served at Christ the King Catholic Church in San Bernardino for 20 years in the Religious Education Program. Also, I have been married for 32 years and have two daughters and two granddaughters. The "Our Father" is my favorite prayer and "Footprints in the Sand” is my favorite poem. I am looking forward to many more years here at St. Adelaide Academy. Let's make 2021-22 a wonderful and blessed year!!

Hello my name is Sheena Salas. I am a Mom to soon to be 2 due with a baby girl in mid April. My son is 2.5 years old. I am so excited to be back at St Adelaide preschool! I previously worked here in the preschool for 4 years about 8 years ago. I love the preschool age and I have 4 years of college education from CSUSB. I have almost completed my BA with a double major in child development and psychology. On my spare time I love to read novels. You can always catch me with a good book. I am also a huge sports fan and love to hang out with my family on weekends watching games. I am looking forward to working along the other preschool teachers to help our little ones learn about our faith and education!

April is here and Jesus has Risen! It is a short month with lots of fun and learning planned! We will continue our Lenten activities with Stations of the Cross, prayers and thankfulness. For Holy Thursday we are having a Last Supper in remembrance of Jesus and his sacrifice he made for us. Please keep an eye out for further info about that.
For language arts we are almost complete with the alphabet and will be working on letters X and Y. We are emphasizing on the sounds and recognition of each letter. 
For math skills most children have achieved counting to 20 on their own! We will continue to have them practicing count and also writing the numbers independently without tracing. We are incorporating many math puzzles and games to help them. 
For science we will be focusing on our planet and recycling. Earth Day is April 22. We also have many fun spring activities. The children have been taking walks around campus and learning about the flowers and plants growing in our environment. 
Holy Thursday April 14th is a minimum day and Easter vacation begins Friday April 15th until April 25th. We hope you and your families have a wonderful and blessed Easter season. We are excitied to come back to preschool refreshed and ready to learn!
