Welcome to Mrs. Marquardt’s Kindergarten page. Kindergarten at Zion is a place full of growth, love, and adventure. Music is very present in our classroom as we sing to learn bible stories, write numbers, and transition from place to place. We love little “ah haw” moments and trying hard things as we tackle our biggest adventure of learning to read. God’s love is center in our classroom and we learn to interact with others by sharing that love.

If you look back at my own Kindergarten “What I Want to Be When I Grow Up” page you will find that teaching has always been the path for me. I graduated from Concordia University in 2019 with my degree in Early Childhood, Inclusive Education. Special Education has always been a part of my life and I have learned tremendously as a teacher while serving at Extended School Year Services. I am blessed to continue to grow as I pursue my Masters in Christian School Administration.

My husband, James, and I were recently married and love to try new things and explore together. You can often find us frisbee golfing, hiking, or playing our favorite board games.

Zion Lutheran School connects students to Christ for life in the church, world, and eternity, but it also equips its teachers to build lasting relationships and a school community that treat one another like family. My call to Zion has been a true blessing in my life and allows me to use my strengths to share the JOY that I have in Christ.
