Welcome to Kindergarten!

My name is Sarah Rieble and I am very excited to be teaching Kindergarten here at SFDA. I have grown up in the Catholic Church and I am a proud product of the Catholic School system. I attended St. Jerome’s in Phoenix from the grades K-8 and then Bourgade Catholic High School from 9-12. My Catholic Education has had a profound impact on my life.

After high school, I went on to pursue my undergraduate degree in Psychology then my Master's of Counseling and Master's in Special Education. This year will be my 9th year teaching. I have been a member of the SFDA Community since my oldest daughter started Preschool in 2017. I consider myself very lucky to now be a teacher in this amazing community! Thank you for entrusting your child with me, it is a privilege that I take very seriously. I cannot wait to work together with your family to have a fantastic year!
