  I am Mrs. Moeggenberg, your teacher.  I have always wanted to be a teacher for as long  as I can remember.  It is probably because I had really great teachers who taught me how to do great things.  I have always wanted to teach 5 year old children too.  I think I chose to do that  because when I started college at Ohio State University, I had a little brother who was five and I really liked teaching him things.  When I would come home from college, I would help his teacher by going on field trips and helping her with activities in the classroom.  That was 25 years ago, and I still love teaching children like you! (Can you figure out how old my brother is now?)
             I have taught at Summit for 22 years.  The children that I first had as five year olds are have already graduated from college!.  When I came to Summit, I learned about a special person named Maria Montessori.  She wanted to help children learn too.  The works that you do in the classroom were from her ideas.  I wanted to learn how to teach like Maria Montessori, and so I went back to school to learn how to teach like her in 1993.

Besides being a teacher, I am also a wife and a mom.  I am married to Mr. Moeggenberg.  We have two daughters.  Marie graduated from The Summit last year and is a freshman at the College of Mount Saint Joseph. Rachel is a freshman this year in the Summit Upper School.  You will hear me talking about them often.. 
  We have one dog named Buster. Buster is a golden retriever. He would love to come to school with us but he knows that children sometimes have allergies.  So he is going to be our pet pen pal.  Look for him at the Pet Shop Web page
We are going to have so much fun in our class learning about lots of wonderful things.  If you have something to share with us about the things we are learning, don't hesitate to bring it in to tell us about it!
Hello, I am Mrs. Sales and I have been teaching at the Summit for 16 years.  Mr. Sales and I have two daughters; both are married and one just had a baby so I am a new grandma!  This year both my daughters are having a new baby so I will be a grandma again! 
I have always loved reading and writing, even when I was five years old.  I wanted to be a teacher as long as I can remember.  That was not what I did right away , however.  After having two other careers, I decided that I really still wanted to be a teacher and came to Summit to begin doing what I really love.
Mrs. Moeggenberg and I have enjoyed teaching Montessori Kindergarten together for 13 years and each year we think we have the best class ever!!  We are happy to have each and every one of you in our class and we are going to work hard to make your kindergarten year YOUR BEST YEAR EVER!!
