Ms. Celia Beistle
Preschool
Email MeMy name is Celia Beistle, and I have lived in the Big Rapids area since the age of 3. As an alum of St. Mary’s, I went through preschool to 8th grade. I then attended Big Rapids High School as a three-sport athlete and honor roll student. After that, I continued my education at Ferris State University. I received an associate and bachelor’s degree in early childhood education, passed the Michigan Test for Teacher Certification (Early Childhood General and Special Education, Birth-K) and am currently pursuing a masters in Career and Technical Education. When not at work or studying, I enjoy spending my free time with my boyfriend, family, and my dog Monty. I have been passionate about working with young children since a very young age and I love helping little minds grow and learn. I am thrilled to start this new journey of teaching preschool at St. Mary’s, giving back, and reconnecting with my catholic faith. I am super excited and grateful for this opportunity! I look forward to connecting with everyone!
