About The Teacher

My name is Celeste Carney.  I was born in Michigan, but in grade school we 
moved to Escondido and that is where I have grown up.  I graduated from 
Orange Glen High School in 1973(I was Celeste Silsby then), Palomar 
College in 1976, and University of San Diego in 1979.  I then got a Masters 
Degree from USIU in Educational Psychology with a Reading Specialist 
Credential soon after.  

I taught Kindergarten here at ECS for 5 years before having my three 
daughters; Britney 24, Marissa 21 (she has worked at Summer in the Son for 
two summers) and Jillian 19. I was very blessed to stay home to raise them 
and am blessed and excited to be back in the very same classroom I taught in 
before.  I am a sixth generation teacher...it is in my bones. My middle 
daughter, Marissa is a Senior at Life Pacific College, and is pursuing her 
Teaching Credential. It is great to be back!

Mission For The Class

God has created each child with purpose in mind.  My goal is to assist in 
preparing them academically and spiritually so they can fulfill that 
purpose.  

To accomplish that goal, as an educator,  I will do my best to create a 
learning enviornment that is fun and comfortable.  It should be a place 
where they learn self control; as well as how to respect others.

But most importantly, my goal is to paint a picture of their Creator that is 
a true resemblance of His likenss, and to instill in them their need for a 
Savior.
