Meet our new 2nd grade teacher at Ramsey Elementary School, Kailee Sachs! Kailee is a Montevideo graduate, and she is excited to return to being a Thunder Hawk for her second year of teaching.
Kailee received her degree in Elementary Education from the College of Saint Benedict. She taught at KMS Elementary School last year. Kailee and her husband live in Appleton, and they have a 2-month-old daughter and a dog. They spend most weekends at the lake enjoying the outdoors and time with family.

Kailee is looking forward to collaborating with her co-workers and creating a safe and welcoming environment for her students as they grow academically and as individuals. As a new teacher, it is important to her to build trust not only with her students, but also with their families and our community. Kailee is excited to be returning to her home town to teach and to give back to the community that she grew up in. Welcome back to Montevideo, Kailee!
