Ms. Melisa Smith
Hello!
For 34 years, I have had the privilege of teaching in the same school district where I grew up - ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø. Working as a teacher in my hometown has been very rewarding.
My husband, Brian, is a teacher at the Applied Technology Center, and our daughter, Cathryn, recently graduated from college. My dog, Bruno (named after the talented Bruno Mars), has been a great addition to our family! In my spare time, I love reading mysteries, writing, traveling, and attending football games.
My favorite part of teaching elementary students is witnessing their 'aha' moments as they learn! I am so grateful to be able to do what I love every day at Oakdale STEAM!
