Hi students and families!  I am originally from Portland, OR and earned a MA and teaching license in Social Studies from the University of St. Thomas. I have lived in St. Paul for the last 10 years and this is my first year working for SPPS.  Previously, I have taught Social Studies and worked in College Counseling.  At Gateway, I am the Academic Support Teacher.  I teach Advisory classes, support online students and am available for one-on-one help in the Workshop. I am excited to be at Gateway!  To contact me, please email: mary.leary@spps.org
