Reading/Math Interventionist

Mrs. Pekera grew up in Wisconsin and attended St. Mary’s Church right here in Port Washington with her family growing up.

She has four children: Mason (11), Logan (9), Eli (7), and Brinley (5). She loves being a part of the St. John XXIII family with her children!

Some things that bring her joy are hiking, going on bike rides, baking, coffee, and music. She loves watching her kids do what they love from soccer to dancing and spending lots of time outside!

This is her second year at St. John XXIII. She graduated from Concordia University in 2010 with her Bachelor of science degree in Education. She most recently taught kindergarten and K4 for ten years.

I have a passion for literacy and instilling a true love for learning in my students.

I am feeling so blessed to be a part of the St. John XXIII community!
