“I have a great passion for teaching and a strong loyalty to Catholic education. I am happy to be a part of the formation of the whole child…body, mind and spirit. I am dedicated to the knowledge that each child has unique talents and gifts, which must be nurtured. There is no better place to do that than Christ the Redeemer.”
Julie Crover never intended to teach. She was hired to work in Madrid, but two weeks before graduation, she got the call that they were cutting their European workforce. She returned home to Charlottesville, Va. and her old high school principal called and offered her a job. The rest is history – she’s been in Catholic education for more than 30 years!
Julie graduated from Immaculata University in Pennsylvania with a degree in Spanish. She also graduated from the Universidad de Valencia in Spain. She is certified to teach Spanish in Virginia and North Carolina and is also certified to teach religion. She was honored to be the teacher of the year in several schools where she has taught and was nominated as one of the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA) educators of the year from the Diocese of Charlotte.
Julie and her husband, Peter, have three children; Egan and her husband, George, live in Maryland; Blair and his wife, Loreley, live in Houston with their two granddaughters, Kamila and Emma; and Jonathan lives in North Carolina. Julie loves to read, especially cookbooks and mysteries, spend time with family, to cook, going to movies, and watching sports - University of Virginia college basketball.
