Hello Fourth Grade Families!

My name is Ms. Pantsari and I have been teaching for the past sixteen years.  This will be my third year at Turtle Lake Elementary and I couldn't be more excited for another year!  I went through the Mounds View Public School system as a child and love getting to teach within  the district I grew up in!

I received my B.S. and Masters in Elementary Education with an emphasis on middle school math from the University of Minnesota (Go Gophers!).  I have also attended Augustana for additional education focusing on mental health and neurodiversity in students.

I have spent some time teaching eighth grade algebra and ninth grade geometry in South Washington County, as well as sixth grade math and mostly fourth and fifth grades in Minneapolis Public Schools.  I love the sense of community in the elementary setting and appreciate the underestimated intelligence of upper elementary students.

In my free time I love hanging out with my family and my Great Dane, Rhoda, especially up north on a lake!  In my down time, I also like to read, bike, craft (knitting, sewing, drawing, painting, etc.), attend Twins games, visit the Minnesota State Fair and travel!

I can't wait to meet you and let's have a great year together!

Stay In Touch With Me!
