Teacher Bio
Hi I'm Ms. Marsh! I went to Indiana University and graduated with a B.S. in Elementary Education with a Concentration in Reading. I am trained in Responsive Classroom, Orton - GIlingham, and Wilson. This is my 3rd year teaching at Mitchell Elementary. I feel so grateful to be a part of such a prestigious, collaborative, and strong community. Before this, I taught first grade and kindergarten for 7 years. When I'm not teaching I like to spend my time baking, cooking, reading, traveling, crafting, playing with my puppy, and watching movies. I am eager to learn, connect, and grow with you and your child this school year!
