Ms. Olivia Maso

Ms. Maso received a Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign with a minor in Children’s Health and Well-Being. She thoroughly enjoyed her classes based on child development, and have thus prompted her to pursue teaching!

Ms. Maso was an active member of the St. John Henry Newman Catholic Center on her campus. She led various Greek and non-Greek university students through different Bible studies and small group discussion. Ms. Maso also attended such studies herself as well as formation-based retreats while in college.

This will be Ms. Maso’s first year of teaching as the new 3rd grade teacher at East Lake Academy. Ms. Maso is very excited to begin her career as an elementary teacher and also hopes to learn more about the positive development of children, especially in regard to the Catholic identity and foundation. Ms. Maso hopes to incorporate this and her own faith life into her daily curriculum to help her students become the saints God had created them to be!
