My name is Marisa Kalmus and this is my 14th year in the classroom! I graduated from Michigan State University with a degree in Elementary Education and an endorsement in Language Arts. I began my career teaching 4th grade, taught 3rd grade for several years, and am so excited to be back teaching a 3/4 combination class! I am working toward earning my Masters Degree in Educational Psychology with a focus on Gifted Education and Talent Development through the University of Connecticut. I am a passionate learner, a passionate teacher, and I love working with my students! In my free time I love to read, write, spend time with friends and family, hang out with my nephews Eli and Aaden, and teach my dog Buster new tricks!
There is nothing more special to me than being part of the learning and growing of children. I often think about how lucky I am to get to do the thing I love every single day.
Thank you for trusting me to be a part of your child's education!
