Marie Dieterle

Director of Shoresh Preschool

Marie began teaching at a preschool in 2000, which led to receiving her teaching certification in 2001. In 2013, she joined Shoresh as a lead pre-k teacher and in addition, soon became Camp Director. It was clear from her management of the Pre-K program and the Camp that Marie’s skills were starting to expand outside the classroom. Marie became Assistant Director in 2020. She was promoted to Director in 2023. Marie earned her Certificate in Jewish Leadership through Spertus/Northwestern University in January 2024. Her dedication, knowledge, and compassion are instrumental in growing our preschool.

Marie was married to her late husband, Jeff for 34 years and is the proud mom of 3 boys. Eric lives in Lake Hopatcong with his wife, Bryan is stationed at Fort Stewart Army Base in Georgia with his wife, and Roger attends Caldwell University and also works at Shoresh.
