Mrs. Bloom

Agricultural Education 

Sioux Central CSD

My name is Melanie Bloom and I am the agricultural educator at Sioux Central. I am a farm wife and a mother of three daughters. I earned a double B.S. in Ag Ed / An Sci and a M.S. in Ag Ed from Iowa State University; I am a current Ph.D. candidate in Ag Education and Leadership Development through Mizzou Online (University of Missouri - Columbia). 

I have taught on and off at Sioux Central since 2002 [and spent a few years writing agriscience curriculum as an independent contractor in there, too]. 

My focus is on experiential and inquiry learning in agricultural sciences. Students will not receive daily grades for busy work, but instead focus on building knowledge and skills to demonstrate through projects. All students can find success in my classroom and I work to provide enrichment opportunities for students who excel.
