Mrs. Susan Lagueux brings over 30 years of teaching experience to Saint Francis de Sales Catholic School. She holds dual certification in elementary and special education and earned her B.A. from Providence College. She has also completed a Master’s equivalency through coursework at Salisbury University and the Maryland State Department of Education, with a concentration in reading specialization. Her diverse teaching background includes special education, gifted instruction, and elementary education.
Mrs. Lagueux has been part of the SFdS community for decades—first as a parishioner since 1999, then as a school parent from 2003 to 2019, and now as a dedicated faculty member since 2018. She currently teaches all core subjects in fourth grade, a level she particularly enjoys because students begin developing independence while remaining enthusiastic and open to learning.
Her teaching philosophy centers on recognizing and nurturing each child’s strengths. She quickly identifies how her students learn best and tailors her instruction to engage them meaningfully. Mrs. Lagueux fosters a classroom environment that is positive, supportive, and encouraging—one where students feel safe to take academic risks and grow in self-confidence.
Above all, Mrs. Lagueux hopes each student leaves her classroom with a deeper understanding of their potential and a love for learning. She is especially passionate about teaching reading and takes great joy in introducing children to engaging novels and authentic literature.
Outside the classroom, Mrs. Lagueux enjoys spending time with her husband, Dave, going on weekend outings, walking in the woods, painting, reading, cooking, and relaxing at the beach.
