Mrs. Lizzy Martin

I am so excited to be a part of the St. Jude family through OptimALL Services! After graduating from Mother of Mercy High School in 2008, I received my Bachelor's degree in Special Education from Bowling Green State University. My passion to ensure ALL students receive the best education possible, for their individual needs, took me from Ohio to Chicago. There I spent 7 years teaching in self contained and co-teaching inclusion classes in inner city schools for grades K-8. I finally made it back to the Westside in 2020 and co-taught inclusion classes for four years at Oak Hills High School, grades 9-12. Given the opportunity to teach at a Catholic school, after attending, loving, and thriving from my Catholic education, is the greatest blessing. I cannot wait to continue to build close and lasting relationships with my students and families for years to come at St. Jude!
