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 second year teaching 3k but I have been assisting and teaching in 3k and 4k at St Pauls 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 (where we attend) and married him in 2018. This summer we celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary and our daughter’s, Glory, third birthday. I also have two step daughters that attend St. Paul’s, Tabitha (6th) and Liliana (4th). In my free time, I like to go to our camper, play with my dog Maui, cross stitch, and read books.
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.
