SALEM LUTHERAN SCHOOL

Hello! I am the new teacher and principal at Salem Lutheran Church and School. This past spring I graduated from Martin Luther College in New Ulm, Minnesota. (MLC is the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod’s school of ministry.) Immediately following my graduation I received the divine assignment to serve as teacher and principal at SLS.

I attended MLC for five years which allowed me to graduate with a double major in Elementary Education and Secondary Education. In the spring semester of 2010 I student taught 7^th and 8^th graders at St. John’s Ev. Luth. School in Sparta, WI, under Mr. Timothy Mueller. Then in the spring semester of 2011 I student taught high schoolers at Winnebago Lutheran Academy in Fond du Lac, WI, where I taught World History, Algebra 1, and Consumer Economics.

During my college years I competed on the soccer and baseball teams. My other interests include watching sports, outdoor activities, and working out. I have lived my entire life in Minnesota where I attended Lutheran elementary school and high school. This daily exposure to God’s Word helped me see the extreme advantage of Christian education in the life of a child. I thoroughly enjoy working with children and teens. They are a blessing from God and deserve every opportunity to succeed. Every day brings new challenges as well as rewards in the teaching field. I am extremely excited to join the ongoing ministry at Salem Lutheran. I am eager to work in our Lord and Savior’s service as he sees fit.
