Mulderrig 'Has A Way Of Making School Fun'

PEARL RIVER, NY — Great teachers matter. In Pearl River Patch, we’re fortunate to have teachers like Mary Mulderrig.

Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to recognize teachers and show them how much they’re valued and appreciated.

This submission comes from Noreen Lenihan, who nominated Mulderrig, a teacher at St. Margaret of Antioch School in Pearl River. She worked there for more than 30 years before retiring; and still, Lenihan points out, fills in frequently as a substitute teacher.

What does this person teach?

Science, history and religion

Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?

She’s a positive influence on the children. She has a way of making school fun & still is an excellent teacher. My boys loved her & she was parent friendly. Always made time for you.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?

She's cheerful.
