Julia Whitam has been the Director of Elementary Religious Education for both the parish and school since 2001. However she has been employed as a homeroom teacher since 1972. She has taught both sixth and fifth grade homerooms at Corpus Christi. Her current responsibilities are teaching religion to 5th and 7th graders, planning and directing school liturgies, working with volunteer teachers in the Religious Education program on Mondays, and planning and preparing students and parents for reception of First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.

With the help of another teacher, Julia Whitam started a Drama Workshop at Corpus Christi which met on Friday afternoons and continued for 16 years.
