About Me

Hi Everyone, and Welcome to Our Page!

I'm Victoria Mertens, and this is my ninth year teaching kindergarten at OPS, and I couldn’t be more excited to continue this journey!

I am passionate about STEAM education and love incorporating robotics and the Engineering Design Process into my classroom. I believe STEAM can be integrated into every aspect of learning, making it both engaging and meaningful for young minds.

Outside the classroom, I cherish spending time with my family. Whether we’re exploring the outdoors or playing with my daughter’s toys on a rainy day, family time is always special to me.

Each year, I look forward to meeting my new students and learning alongside them. They inspire me just as much as I hope to inspire them!
