“We’ve been able to do a lot of hands-on activities and discussion because the classes are so small. We really get that personable feel.”

– Elizabeth, elementary education major

“Love the children first, then teach them.”

– Saint Mother Theodore Guerin

The Education Department at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College is inspired by and strives to follow in the footsteps of Saint Mother Theodore Guerin. While the Sisters of Providence currently engage in many ministries, one of their early ministries was teaching and service.
