My name is Erica McIntyre, and I’m delighted to be returning to teach Grade 4 at FMCS for the 2024-2025 school year! I’m a Maritimer, born and raised just outside of Fredericton, New Brunswick. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in English and History, as well as a Bachelor of Education from Crandall University in Moncton, NB. Over the past 10+ years of teaching, I’ve had the privilege of working with students from kindergarten to Grade 12 in Norway, Haiti, and Canada.

This year, my heartfelt hope for the students is inspired by Isaiah 44:22, which calls us to “return to” God, for He has “paid the price to set [us] free.” This serves as a beautiful reminder that we were created by Him and for Him (Colossians 1:16 and Ephesians 2:10). Only in turning—or returning—to Him can we truly become all that He created us to be. Together, we will explore how, by returning to Him, we can learn to love, forgive, and grow the Fruits of the Spirit.  It is my desire that as we learn, we will discover the freedom, hope, and righteousness found in the One who made, died for, and loves us.

I love travelling, learning about new cultures, and connecting with people. In my free time, I enjoy reading, writing, drawing, and painting. I also have a passion for watching old musicals, diving into obscure historical events, and listening to podcasts or music.

I’m looking forward to another wonderful year!
