Mrs. Catherine “Cat” Broccardo assists Mrs. Grace Bayles with Kindergarten and First Grade, and she brings energy, creativity, and a big smile to every class she teaches! With over two decades of experience, she has specialized in creative movement for children ages 1–8, blending music, play, and imagination to make learning unforgettable. After 14 years of homeschooling she knows that hands-on experiences — with a generous dose of fun — are the best teachers.
Her love for teaching is matched by her passion for faith — she loves teaching women’s Bible studies, and, alongside her husband Marco, supports the leadership of Hope Rock Church in Austin, Texas.
Born in Cape Town, South Africa, Cat and her family — Marco and their three children, Alessio, Dino, and Arabella — followed God’s call to Texas to plant a church. When she’s not in the classroom or at church, you’ll find her running, singing, crafting, decorating, dancing like nobody’s watching, and making ordinary days feel like a celebration.
