Biography:
Miss Mittelstaedt was born in Copley, Ohio and went to college at Concordia, Seward, Nebraska, graduating in 1977. Her first call was to Immanuel Lutheran School in Wentzville, Missouri, where she taught Kindergarten, started the Preschool with a class of 4 year olds, and taught music to grades 1-8. She began work on her Masters degree at Seward, too. In 1984 she accepted a call to Grace, Arlington, Texas, where she taught mainly 3rd grade. Her dad died in 1994 and she wanted to get closer to home. She took the call to teach 4th grade at Unity in 1995. She taught 4th grade until LSUS began in 2009, when she taught 3rd grade. Last year Miss Mittelstaedt moved to 5th grade but now is back teaching 4th grade.
