Thank you for visiting St. Mary's Second Grade Website! My name is Carol Duffy. I am the teacher of the Second Grade class at St. Mary's. I have been teaching second grade here since the 1993-1994 school year. I live on a farm by Minonk, Illinois with my husband, Paul. I have a son, Marc, and a daughter, Amy. I also have four amazing granddaughters and two fantastic grandsons. I like to make learning as fun as possible, while still maintaining a disciplined classroom. The students in my classroom learn by participating in activities and being engaged in learning.
