7th Grade
My family and I are extremely excited about starting our journey with all of you here in the St. Patrick’s family. We are coming to you from Kearney, NE where we have spent the last 3 years living and working. After receiving my Bachelor’s Degree in the spring of 2002 from the University of Dubuque in Dubuque, IA, we spent the next 2 years in Kimball, NE where I was a 6th grade teacher in an all inclusive elementary classroom setting. We enjoyed our time there, but budget issues brought us to Kearney, where we have spent three years. I taught outside of Kearney, in Shelton, where I taught middle school math, science, and computers courses all three years. I also coached cross country and track while at Shelton, which was awesome. I am a super enthusiastic person who is always up for some fun and new things to explore. I was married in 2001 to my beautiful and talented wife, Kathy, and since then we have had the honor to have two children. My son, Ethan, was born in 2002, and my daughter, Avery, was born in 2007. My immediate family resides in Aurora, CO at present after spending most of their lives outside of Chicago, where I grew up. My wife’s family resides in small town Iowa. We hope to meet many of you and get to know you and your children well! In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, golfing, camping, fishing, and running. I ran the Chicago Marathon back in 2001 and look forward to running in many other marathons in the future. Kari Truax - 7th/8th Grade Reading/Social Studies Teacher
