Hi! My name is Bridget Hill and I started my journey at Holy Cross Lutheran Academy in August 2020. Yes, right in the middle of a pandemic! My heart was heavy for the children not going to school and I knew I had to be a part of the solution. I am loving this school, the staff, and the caring and supportive environment I get to be a part of. #loveholycross!

 

I attended University of Nebraska at Omaha with a major in Elementary Education and a minor in Early Childhood Education. I started my career teaching second grade and then took a nice long break to be a stay at home mom (which I absolutely loved!). I slowly got back into teaching by substituting K-6th, teaching an Intervention Program 1st-6th, and teaching fourth grade before I landed at Holy Cross.

 

I have been married since 1999 and love my two teenage daughters to the moon and back! We moved to Rocklin 12 years ago from Iowa, my home state, and I go back to visit family every chance I can get! During my free time you will find me woodworking, at the lake, hiking, at church or watching football.

 

Kindergarten is a time of tremendous growth! Children at this age are like little sponges soaking in everything they see and hear. And I get to provide a rich educational foundation for these eager learners, ready to excel in their next school years. This is a time of distinguishing letter sounds and building a solid foundation in math concepts. They work on friendships and exploring the world around them. I get to see them progress rapidly throughout the year and blossom into well-rounded students. I find it pure joy to be part of their journey!
