Meet Mrs. Nystrom

Hello! I began teaching at Turtle Lake in 2014. Teaching first grade is my passion, there is no place else I'd rather be! I graduated from UW-Eau Claire in 2013 with a BA in Elementary Education and an emphasis in Language Arts. I will have completed my Mounds View Certification masters-level program in December of 2020. Some of my favorite things to do (when I am not teaching kiddos) are spending time with my wonderful husband, taking my mini-dachshund, Breezy, hiking, spending time with my 4 beautiful nieces, heading north to the family cabin, reliving my recent wedding day in my mind, and working on updating and decorating our recently purchased home. My husband, Steve, and I are expecting our first child (a little girl!) due October 18!
