About Our Librarian
Hi, I’m Mrs. Cesca. I have been the librarian at St. Agnes since 1996. My job gives me the opportunity to interact and promote within each child the love for reading. One of the best parts of my job is watching each student grow and develop into a mature, competent, and self-driven student who is ready to take on the challenges of their high school education.
When I’m not working at St. Agnes, I spend my time walking, reading, hiking and camping. I love being in the outdoors and exploring as well as experiencing the wonders of Mother Nature. I am so blessed to live in this wonderful state that provides me with the opportunity to go from oceans to mountains and enjoy our state’s great outdoors.
