The Regina Academy at St. John the BaptistMrs. Carolyn Pyatt
Mrs. Pyatt received her Bachelor's degree in English from Arcadia University in Glenside. While a student there, she became involved in the Writing Across the Curriculum program and helped to establish the Writing Center for students. This was a fabulous, innovative program at that time and it was exciting for her to work with faculty and students in all disciplines on the creativity and challenge of the writing process. She worked for about 15 years in the Admissions Office at Arcadia where she interviewed students, reviewed applications, and worked with families engaged in the college admissions process. After she left, she enjoyed about 7 years of work as a freelance writer where she created educational/recruitment magazines.
When she volunteered in her daughter's kindergarten Spanish class at St. John the Baptist, she loved exploring the Latino culture and seeing the children learn the language.
She found a real home in the fifth grade classroom at the Regina Academy teaching grammar, literature, and science. She feels blessed to teach the children, and she is excited to help each child grow personally, academically, and spiritually. She loves being involved with the students as they explore the arts through the school play. She also enjoys interacting with students on Student Council. Student Council members realize the immense impact they can have on others by giving service to others and being the heart and hands of Jesus by doing His work.
In her free time, Mrs. Pyatt enjoys reading historical fiction, watching old movies, and spending time with her family. She loves seeing her daughter grow as an artist, a young teacher, and as a woman.
