Hi! My name is Maria Winkels and I am so excited to be teaching kindergarten at Avon Elementary! This is my eigth year teaching kindergarten.
I was born and raised in Albany, MN and I am the youngest of 3. I went to elementary and high school in Albany. After graduating high school, I attended the College of Saint Benedict where I majored in Elementary Education. In 2021 I graduated from Saint Mary's University with a Master's degree in teaching and learning.
My husband and I live in Avon. We have two sons: Waylon & Will and two puppies: Axle and Milo. I enjoy being active outdoors and spending time with family and friends.
I cannot wait to watch your child learn and grow. It will be a great year!!
Mrs. Winkels
