Teachers

Dear Fourth Grade Families,

Hello, my name is James McGee and I am blessed to be job-sharing the fourth grade teaching position this school year with Mrs. Judy Nye. I will be here on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.

I grew up in Alameda where my two brothers and I attended St. Philip Neri School. After high school, I graduated from Chabot College’s firefighter academy prior to my calling to be a teacher. I later earned my bachelors degree and teaching credential from California State University (Hayward) East Bay. My teaching career began in the Newark public schools where I served for over twenty years as a teacher, coach, and administrator. My calling to teach in the Catholic schools led me to Holy Spirit School and later to St. Edward. This year marks my ninth year serving the Diocese of Oakland.

I met my wonderful wife, Kristina, in 1991 and we were married two years later. We made Newark our home for six years prior to moving to Fremont. In addition to my 39 years in education, I also served as a lector in the Diocese and I am a proud member of the Italian Catholic Federation.

I have been truly blessed during my life and teaching career and I look forward to working with you as we meet the academic, social, and faith needs of your child.

Blessings,
James McGee, MEd
