Katie Martin
1st Grade Teacher
Education: Western Washington University, B.A. of Education, TESOL certificate; Whatcom Community College, A.A.S.
Mrs. Martin joined St. Paul’s Academy in 2012. Through a combination of her University education and previous employment, she has been working with children since 2005. Choosing a career path was easy for her because she loves kids, learning new things, and helping others reach their potential. She feels fortunate to have found a professional home with a warm community that allows both students and staff to thrive. Her favorite thing about teaching at St. Paul’s is that she can form close relationships with students while helping them contribute to the school’s long history of academic excellence.
The Northwest has been home to Mrs. Martin all her life, and she appreciates living here more every year. However, she also loves to travel and enjoys annual visits to New Hampshire (her husband’s home state) and other destinations whenever possible. Locally, you are most likely to find her walking her dog in one of Bellingham’s many parks.
A favorite saying: “It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.” ~ Albert Einstein
