She gave me the chance to work at OCPS, forever thankful for that...she was also the person who adopted my little Hollie, her little yorkie, when she was born!

She was both my best and my favorite grade school teacher. I have many fond memories of being in her class at St. Albert's. She could make something as mundane as diagramming sentences into a fun activity. It was great to see and speak to her at our last Class of '68 Reunion. RIP Miss McAuliffe.

She was my 6th and 8th grade teacher(1968) at St. Alberts. She was unquestionably one of the finest most encouraging teacher I had. I never think of my time in Louisville without thinking of her and my class.
