About Mrs. Nygren

I have had the pleasure of teaching fifth grade at Our Lady of Mercy School since 2010. I have taught fifth grade for nine years.


I challenge my students to think critically, apply what they learn in the classroom to everyday experiences and READ. A great emphasis is placed on reading and writing across the curriculum. I try to cultivate a student's intrinsic motivation to always do their best and set high expectations for themselves. Our classroom environment is one of mutual respect for each other and kindness so that mercy may flourish.

My husband, Eric, and I are the proud parents of three boys: E.J. (26), Kyle (23), and Daniel (20).
