My deepest sympathy to you and your family Judy!

Judie Kinate

Best experience is watching Michelle pull the best from students. As a sub her art of making magic happen with words was enlightening. Her mentor Jan Tilden also remarks about her perseverance to enable future writers gain the best. Michelle gave gifts both in reading and writing toward future authors and analytical readers.

Emma LaBudde

Mrs. Renzelmann was one of the teachers I truly missed since I graduated High school in 2017. She patiently explained any questions I had and always had a smile to share with her students. Rest in peace and my condolence to her family and friends.
