Hello, I’m Regie Neff, and I teach middle school math and 6th grade religion. I grew up in St. Ann, graduated from St. Gregory and Rosati-Kain High School, and recently moved back to Missouri from Texas.

 

After earning a degree in Landscape Architecture at Kansas State and pursuing a career in municipal government (including eight years as Assistant City Manager in McKinney, Texas, then the fastest growing city in the U.S.), it was time to re-imagine my life. I went back to school and earned a Master of Arts in Teaching from Texas Woman’s University.

 

Subsequently, I taught at a Jewish school in Dallas. Over the years, I have taught 4th grade general studies, then 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th grade math, Algebra 1, and a Geometry class for advanced 8th grade students. My time working in a Jewish school gave me a deeper understanding of the roots of Christianity and an appreciation of the context in which Jesus lived. Consequently, I am delighted to have the opportunity to teach 6th grade religion, focusing on the revelation of the Old Testament and fulfillment through Jesus in the New Testament.
