A Little About Me!

My name is Stefanie Myllymaki, your child’s five-year-old kindergarten teacher!  I have my bachelors in Early Childhood Education, English as a Second Language, and American Sign Language from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee.  I also have studied and taught dance.  Given my background, I incorporate language, play, and creative movement anytime I can within the classroom.  It is very important that children are given different ways to express themselves as it allows them to learn and explore the world around them.  This diversity will be honored and celebrated. 

I am looking forward to getting to know you and your child.  Family-teacher communication is very important when it comes to your child’s success.  You are your child’s first teacher and you know them the best.  So, please feel free to contact me at any time with any ideas, tips, questions, or concerns.  The best ways to reach me are: 

Email: smyllymaki@mtsd.k12.wi.us

Cell phone: (847) 204-7336

I will communicate mostly through email/website about events in the classroom.
