Are you smarter than a 5th-grader? If your student has our new teacher Miss Sturch, you're probably wondering who she is.👩🏻‍🏫

Please welcome Miss Kalie Sturch👩🏻‍🏫, 5th-grade teacher.

Kalie recently moved to Putnam County from Groveland, Illinois. Miss Sturch graduated from Maryville University in St. Louis with her degree in elementary education. 👩🏻‍🎓She chose to become a teacher because she loves working with kids👧🏼🧒🏻 and getting to know them.👩🏻‍🏫

When Miss Sturch is not in the classroom, she loves to be outdoors!🌳 Her favorite things to do are hike, kayak🚣‍♀️, and relax in her hammock. Kalie also loves to travel! Earlier this summer, Miss Sturch took a trip to Utah and Arizona where she visited 8 national parks.

Some fun facts about Miss Sturch: she LOVES sweet tea🥤, Harry Potter📚 and the Chicago Cubs⚾️! She is excited to join the Putnam County family :)

Please give a warm welcome to Miss Kalie Sturch.
