Where in the world is #PointerNation?
After serving #PointerNation for 35 years, Mrs. Susan Kelm took a new teaching position at the School District of La Crosse in 2021 to be closer to family. This June, she officially retired.
A group of current and former Mineral Point Elementary School educators gathered recently at Mrs. Sue Okas' farm to celebrate! Fun fact -- Sue Okas was Susan Kelm's mentor teacher when she first started, so this was a full circle moment!
