Melissa Meneses

                                   Welcome to 5th grade!
Melissa Meneses is a new teacher to St. Anthony’s Catholic School this year! She comes to us as a California native and has adapted to Dalhart and its friendly community.
Melissa graduated from Hilmar High School in Hilmar, CA and earned a Bachelor’s Degree from California State University, Stanislaus in Business Administration: Strategy & Entrepreneurship. Although her college education is business-focused, her spiritual education has also been a significant part of her life. Melissa has taught catechism to elementary (3rd-5th) children and taught Sunday school at her previous parish, Our Lady of Assumption Catholic Church in Turlock, CA. She was also heavily involved in liturgical ministry for the English and Portuguese masses. Melissa was part of youth groups growing up during her school years and continued being a part of Young Adult Teams of Our Lady (YATOL) through college.
Melissa has been married just over a year to her husband Aaron Meneses. They have made Dalhart their home and are blessed to be part of a wonderful community!
Melissa hopes to inspire the students of St. Anthony’s Catholic School and to remind them to always put God first!
