Marissa Massey
School: Arlington STEM Elementary School
Grade teaching: I’m honored to teach second grade with Julie Hille and Rebecca Church. I could not do this without these two incredible women.
Education: I started my undergraduate path at Lake Superior State University in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. I ran cross-country and indoor and outdoor track for three years. I then transferred closer to home in Kalamazoo, Michigan, to finish my elementary education degree. I had met my now husband of 14 years, Brian Massey, at church camp serving students that summer before transferring to Kalamazoo, which was much closer to my home
