Hi! My name is Annaka Magill, and I'm so excited to be teaching Junior Kindergarten here at Sts. Joachim and Ann. I'm originally from Thousand Oaks, California, but have lived here now in the St. Louis area for 18 years. I graduated from California State University Northridge with a degree in Child Development. Over the years I have worked with children in a variety of settings and a variety of ages, but working with young children is my favorite! My family and I have been parishioners here at Sts. Joachim and Ann for 16 years. Both my children have attended J&A and have loved their time here. Three years ago I started substitute teaching at Sts. Joachim and Ann and quickly realized it was the place for me. Additionally, I am one of the assistant coaches of Girls on the Run and I chair the Father Daughter Dance.
