My name is Katie Schervish. I was born in Indianapolis, but grew up in Silver Spring, Maryland. I very much enjoyed growing up near Washington, DC. I went through the International Baccalaureate Program at Richard Montgomery High School. I went to Boston College for my undergraduate studies. I majored in Elementary Education and Human Development and had a great time in Boston. I spent a semester studying in Galway, Ireland, and a great summer traveling around Europe with my sister.
After graduating, I completed a year of volunteer work with the Colorado Vincentian Volunteers in Denver, CO. I worked full time at a school for children with emotional and behavioral disorders. It was an amazing learning experience, as was living with 12 other people in one house!
I moved to Louisville in 2004 to continue school. I graduated Spalding University in 2006 with a Masters in Education. I have been working in the Catholic school system since I moved to Louisville and have spent the last five years teaching fifth grade at St. Nicholas Academy. This past January, I started a program at Bellarmine University to get my certification in Special Needs.
In September, I will be getting married, so look for email from Katie Jordan starting in October!!
I currently live in the Highlands, only a few minutes from my parents. I have one sister who lives with her husband in Silver Spring, MD, not too far from where we grew up.
