Who We Are

Faculty & Staff

We’re proud that a majority of our teaching staff have graduate degrees or advanced accreditations. St. Giles School leadership brings more than 50 years of combined experience as Catholic educators and administrators throughout the Archdiocese of Chicago.

Kathy Lofgren began her career at St. Giles in 2001, serving first as a substitute and then as a middle school teacher before taking on her current role on the administrative team. She is our Kids Klub director and finds getting to know our students and their families as extremely rewarding. Mrs. Lofgren sent her children to St. Giles School and is proud of her newest title: SGS Grandparent.
