Welcome to First Grade!
Meet Mrs. Merritt
I am very excited to be teaching first grade at St. Paul on the Lake. First grade is a wonderful year of new beginnings. Together we will embark on exciting challenges as we grow and learn together.
On a personal note, I have been married for 23 years. My husband, children, and I enjoy spending time together camping, traveling, and participating in "family game nights". My son is a junior at Oakland University and is studying to become an elementary school teacher. My daughter is a junior in high school and enjoys gymnastics and weight training. We have a Border Collie/Lab mix who thinks he is a 70 pound lap dog, but we love him so much. Our cat, Timber (more commonly referred to as "kitty") provides us with great entertainment as he chases his tail at the little beams of light we flash his way.
Please refer to this site often to stay up-to-date on everything happening in our classroom. Here you will find, among other things, newsletters and pictures. Learn about what we do in first grade by clicking the "ABOUT OUR CLASS" tab above.
In order to get in touch with me, please use my email listed below. I will respond
to all emails before the next school day is over.
