My name is Tracie Esterby and I am the current Preschool and Wraparound teacher here at St Francis School. This is my first year with St. Francis and I am loving my room, school, students, families, and coworkers! I am a momma to four beautiful girls, married to Andy, and live on a farm right outside of Ellsworth. Before coming to St. Francis I worked as a nurse at Fairview Clinic for almost 15 years. I also worked at the Ellsworth Community School for about ten years. Most of them were in the classroom (Title One program) and then for my last two years I worked in the health office. Teaching has always been a part of my heart; teaching patients how to live their lives to the best they could be or teaching little ones how to play and learn. Here at St. Francis, I get the privilege of doing that every day along with wonderful coworkers who are now my friends.
