Welcome Students and Parents to the 2018-19 School Year!
I am Mrs. Elizabeth Coon. I have been teaching since 2003. I have taught in two public schools, Magee Middle School (Round Lake) and Palombi Middle School (Lake Villa). In both schools I was able to teach my passion, Language Arts and Reading (ELA).
I am happy to join the St. Bede Community this year. I grew up as a part of Saint Peter's Church in Antioch. 
My main philosphy behind teaching and learning is to love the children first and teach them second, because when you know you're loved and accepted you can do anything you put your mind to! 
I can't wait to have a fabulous year with you!
