St. Paul’s Early Childhood

3K Classroom – Mrs. Bjork

Hello! My name is Mrs. Kelly Bjork and I am the 3k and EDP teacher. This is my third year teaching 3k but I have been assisting and teaching in 3k and 4k at St Paul’s since 2019. I grew up in Missouri but Menomonie has been my home since 2010. I have a Masters in theology from Life Christian University. I met my husband Andrew at Love Church in Menomonie and married him in 2018. This summer we celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary and our daughter’s, Glory, fourth birthday. I also have two step daughters that attend St. Paul’s, Tabitha (7th) and Liliana (5th). In my free time, I like to go to our camper, cross stitch, and read books. I cannot wait to meet you!

4K Classroom – Mrs. Hemling

Welcome to 4K! I I was born in Wisconsin and lived there until we moved to Michigan when I was in 5th grade. (This is where I became a Lions fan.) From a young age I knew that I wanted to teach young children. I met my husband Tim in college and we got married after we graduated in 2001. We have two children Micah and Hannah.

I attended Martin Luther College in New Ulm, Minnesota where I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education in 2001. I started my teaching career in a small town in Nebraska where I taught grades K-3 for 8 years. Shortly after our son was born we moved back to Wisconsin where I stayed home with my children and ran an in home daycare for 3 years. I then returned to teaching and taught preschool for 4 years. In 2018 we moved to Florida where I subbed for the first year and after that taught PreK for 3 years. This is my fourth year at St. Paul’s.

Kindergarten – Mrs. Marohn

I am Ann Marohn. I am thrilled to be your child’s teacher! I have been teaching for 10 years, as a 1st grade teacher, and an early childhood teacher/director. I am quite excited to fill the gap teaching Kindergarten! I have a degree in Speech and Language Pathology. And I enjoy staying busy with work and family! The home to school relationship is very important to me as a teacher and essential for the success of your child’s education. I will do my best to keep you informed of classroom happenings and what we are learning in school! I want you to know how thankful I am for the trust that you have put in our school and me, as a teacher, to care for and teach your child each day.
