Peggy Jensen

My name is Peggy Jensen and I am the preschool teacher at St. Albert the Great School. This will be my third year teaching preschool at StAG. I've been working at StAG since 2016 - originally hired to work in our schools Autism Program as a paraprofessional and then as a Preschool/PreK paraprofessional. I’ve been working in early childhood education for the past 20 years - it’s truly my calling. I received a BA from the University of Illinois with a major in psychology and minor in early childhood education. My passion is working with little ones - witnessing them blossom: growing intellectually, physically, emotionally and spiritually! Plus it's A LOT of fun!! While I’m not planning and teaching preschool I am a mom of 2 wonderful young men - fully grown but still very much part of my life! I love taking walks w/ my dog, listening to all sorts of music, reading and spending time w/ family and friends. And of course being from Chicago - rooting on the Bears and Cubbies!! St. Albert is truly a wonderful place to work and call my “2nd home” - I am truly blessed!
