Hello! My name is Maria Wirtz, I am excited to be teaching 2nd grade next year! I graduated from the University of Mary, double majoring in Elementary and Early Childhood Education. This spring, I student taught in Kindergarten and 2nd grade at the Turtle Lake-Mercer School. I am passionate about teaching children and making memorable learning experiences with them!
I grew up in Underwood, North Dakota. I enjoy staying active and busy. Some of my favorite things to do are travel, spend time with family, and do recreational sports. In August of 2022, Tanner Freeman and I will be getting married, so I will be Mrs. Freeman!
Hello! My name is Ms. Kailee Klein. I am a recent graduate from the University of Mary with a bachelor's degree in music education.
I am originally from Wahpeton, ND. Music has been a passion of mine since 3rd grade when I started playing piano. In middle school, I started playing the clarinet and never stopped. I am also passionate about choir, musical theatre, dance, and above all, my students. I strive to provide a positive environment where every student feels successful. I am excited to start my journey as a music teacher at Turtle Lake - Mercer where I can inspire all ages of students through music!
When I am not busy playing music, you can find me with my family and friends. I enjoy the summer and spending my time outside in the sun. I like to camp, go for walks, and be on the water. During the winter I enjoy getting cozy and watching movies, doing puzzles, and playing games.
