Hello and welcome!  My name is Katie Reisinger and this year is my 18th year in education!  I started my career right here in Mechanicsburg where I taught first grade for 9 years and then served as the Reading Specialist at Northside Elementary for 3 years.  I moved to Elmwood Academy when the building opened and I am happy to call Elmwood Academy home!

Some Facts about Me:

• I grew up in Perry County and graduated from West Perry.
• I still live in Perry County where my husband and I own a part of his family's farmland.
• We have three children - our son was born in March of 2013, our daughter was born in March of 2015, and our youngest son was born in December of 2018.
• I graduated from Penn State University in 2006 with a dual certification in Early Childhood and Elementary Education.
• I earned my Masters degree in Reading from Shippensburg University in 2010.
• I love to workout and have completed two half marathons.
• I am a huge fan of Penn State football, Penn State women's volleyball, the Philadelphia Phillies, and the Pittsburgh Steelers!

I am looking forward to another wonderful school year! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at school (between 7:30 am and 3:00 pm) or via email!
