Teacher Biography
3rd Grade
Morgan Allman
Mrs. Morgan Allman
Hello! I am honored to be teaching 3rd grade at OLP for my fifth year. I graduated from West Liberty State College (as it was then called) with a degree in Education and a minor in Pre-K. I taught Pre-K for a year and a half until I had my first child. I have substituted for Marshall County Schools and worked for WV Birth to Three Program for four years.
I have been married to my husband, Zack, for thirteenth years. We have 2 wonderful boys, Brody and Ruxin, both of whom are now students here at Our Lady of Peace.
Each year is truly a blessing to be able to teach the children of OLP as well as learn from them. I try to help the children experience things through hands-on activities, as well as learn from the book.
Summer Reading & Math Work
3rd Grade Summer Reading
Each student is required to read two books over the summer: one is assigned below and one will be picked from the Summer Reading List. The student’s choice book must be one they have not previously read. The student is to fill out the Summer Book Report Form given below on their chosen book only. Reports need to be returned on the first day of school.
I have chosen the book The Miniature World of Marvin and James by Elise Broach for the class to read 
over the summer. I think it will be an enjoyable book for all. If you feel it is too difficult for your child to read on their own, please feel free to read it with him/her. Asking questions helps with understanding. When we return to school, we will review the book and then the students will be tested on the book. The students do not have to write a report for this book.
Summer Math Packet
Please work on the pages below and return them to me on first day of school. I have enclosed some practice worksheets to keep the students sharp over the summer. We will be covering multiplication this year so if you would like to start with some games over the summer that would be great too.
Thank you and enjoy your summer break.

Teacher Biography
Mrs. Jessica Hunnell
Hi! I am absolutely honored to be your preschool teacher this year! The 2021-2022 school year will be my third year teaching at OLP. I graduated from West Liberty State College with a degree in Elementary Education. I have previously taught in a preschool in Ohio for two years.
My husband and I have two young girls. They are both currently students at Our Lady of Peace, so I truly believe in the education and Christian faith that is instilled here at our school.
I know we have a wonderful year ahead of us full of learning, laughter and growth!
A Typical Day
The Our Lady of Peace Pre-School is a wonderful part of our school family with an outstanding reputation. The program provides opportunities to help preschoolers develop a stronger, balanced foundation for spiritual, academic, and social skills. With parents and school as partners, it serves as a transition from home to school. A loving and caring atmosphere will prevail.
Our program includes: Religion/Self Esteem; Health & Safety; Reading Readiness; Field Trips; Math Readiness; Show & Tell/Sharing; Science Awareness; Music; Social Skills; Art; Motor Coordination; Group Play; Computer Skills and iPad applications; and Free Play.
The NCEA Early Childhood recommendations are followed.
Opportunities for joining with grade school students for such activities as assemblies, Christmas and Spring Show are available, and add to that family and Christian community atmosphere.
