My name is Christina Ely and I come to Star of the Sea Catholic School with over 35 years teaching experience. I have taught in New Mexico, Mississippi and Virginia. While pursuing my teaching career, I was also a published author. My love for language is at the core of my teaching philosophy.

I hold a B.A. and M.A. in Educational Leadership and Spanish, and I am endorsed in Bilingual and Teaching English as a Second Language by New Mexico. English Language Arts is my specialty, and I am eager to share my love of language with Star of the Sea students. I have three grown children and five grandchildren that are my whole world.
