Mrs. Vicky Tibbitts earned her Bachelor of Arts in Education from Flagler College and holds Florida certification in Elementary Education (K–6). She has been a dedicated Kindergarten teacher at Cathedral Parish School since 2004, where she has spent more than two decades helping young learners build a strong academic, social, and spiritual foundation.

​

Mrs. Tibbitts brings a unique global perspective to her classroom. Born in New Guinea, she has lived in Africa, England, and Saudi Arabia, and has traveled to every continent except one. These experiences inspire her love of teaching about the world and enrich her students' learning through engaging lessons such as her annual Olympic Ceremonies, where children explore the continents and oceans.

​

Her classroom is a warm, nurturing, and stimulating environment where every child is encouraged to succeed. Mrs. Tibbitts incorporates visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic learning strategies to meet the needs of all students. She integrates STEM and STEAM activities that foster teamwork, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving while also utilizing technology, including iPads, to enhance learning during classroom centers. Through differentiated reading instruction and the Six Traits of Writing program, she helps each student reach their full potential. One of her greatest joys is seeing the excitement on a child's face when they begin to read independently.

​

As a proud Cathedral Parish School parent, Mrs. Tibbitts values the school's faith-filled community. Both of her children attended Cathedral Parish School before continuing their education at St. Joseph's Academy. Her goal is to prepare students for the academic challenges and adventures of first grade while nurturing their faith, encouraging collaboration, and developing lifelong problem-solving skills.
