Personal Information

Ms. Basile is from Havertown and was born and raised in Annunciation BVM parish. She has been a student in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia since grade 2 and extremely proud and honored to be working in this education system today. Her high school career was spent right here at Archbishop Prendergast where she graduated in 1986. From there she attended Rosemont College and graduated in 1990. It was at Rosemont College that she began her career in advancement. After Rosemont, she worked in advancement at Main Line Health, in higher education at Cabrini College and Immaculata University, and most recently in K-8, working as the Director of Development of Independence Mission Schools. Coincidentally, many of the IMS schools are feeder schools to Bonner & Prendie. Ms. Basile is proud of her faith and continues practicing it at Presentation BVM.

You can find her close to home with her English bulldog named Sherman, enjoying the tight-knit community of Havertown where most of her family and friends have continued to reside. Just like anyone from DELCO, I enjoy the Jersey Shore - partial to Cape May. But Capitva Island, FL, is still my favorite.

Why Bonner & Prendergast?

Because I loved that school. I loved Prendie and I have the wish that all students have the chance to experience what I experienced. I want the school to succeed, so giving it 110% everyday is not a problem. I enjoy my fellow team members and all the faculty and staff.
