Meet the Teacher!

Hello! My name is Kristin Anson and this is my 20th year teaching at St. Norbert School. I graduated from St. Norbert College with a degree in Communications and French and earned a Masters degree and my teaching certification at National Louis University. I spent my first 3 years at St. Norbert teaching 3rd grade before I moved to 5th.

I am an avid reader and am passionate about sharing books with my students. My goal is to help them learn to love books and become life-long readers.

When I’m not teaching or reading, I love traveling, gardening, and baking.

I am looking forward to a great year in 5th grade. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me anytime!
