Mrs. Marjaniemi began teaching kindergarten in the 2022-2023 school year and loves it! She feels blessed to be able to teach, connect, and care for the little ones God has brought to St Gabriel Classical Academy. Prior to teaching at SGCA, Mrs. Marjaniemi received her Bachelor of Science in Education from Northern Arizona University, as well as a Master of Education degree in Educational Leadership. She then taught Language Arts at the middle school level, both in Arizona and when she moved to Colorado. Although she enjoyed teaching immensely, she was blessed to take some time to be a stay-at-home mom and raise four children while they were young. While staying at home, she also managed to keep her teaching certification current and get a fitness certification in Pietra Fitness. (A strengthening and stretching program with Catholic prayer and meditation).
